On my machine at work, I've had pretty good results using
SpamBayes to handle the spam. It doesn't use a canned set of filters, but instead trains on the user's mail.
It's very, very rare now for it to classify a Spam message as legitimate, and I've never (to my knowledge) had it classify a legitimate message to me as Spam. I get a few (usually 4 or fewer) messages a day that it classifies as "unsure", and it continues to train on those when I tell it whether they're Spam or not.
