If you're looking for a good spam filter, I can't recommend
http://spambayes.sf.net enough. They have a POP3 proxy and a plugin for
Oulook 2000/XP. It's based on Python and requires a bit of technical
fiddling to get set up (nothing that someone who has managed to build
mono on linux couldn't handle ;-) but the results are excellent after
sufficient training. In fact, I would imagine that the spambayes folks
would be very interested in getting their stuff plugged into evolution
somehow...
