if you really report 500 mails each day you should give over your
job to someone with more qualifications because we are hosting some
thousand mail-addresses and i could never report 500 spam-mails per
day because they are not received without blocking major providers

a) intention-filtering, hourly updated rules
b) blacklist
c) block by PTR to get rid of 99% of all spambots

your primary job as admin is to make sure that legal mails are  received and
not to play around the whole day to maximize false-positives, long after
that comes the fight against spam

10 spam mails are less damage than a single false-positive
