I find that using SpamAssassin + procmail is good, because spam determination is not "yes/no". I refile things that are definately spam (lots of SpamAssassin points) into a "junk" folder, and things that are probably spam (a few SpamAssassin points) into a "junk-check" folder. I look at the contents of "junk-check" every week or so.
In the past 2 years or so, I have had something like 2 false positives in the "junk-check", and none in the "junk".
This system saved a lot of time I was wasting looking at spam.
