I'd say the one plausible advantage Brightmail might have is that since they're in at Hotmail and other large installations, they could implement systems that notice that 45,000 people all just received the same message, making it likely that those messages are spam.
Their rules and scoring are I'd say inferior to SA though. And there's no real way to expose configuration stuff to users with BrightMail.
