Yeah, that's sort of what I meant when I posted my version of the above
list.  The earlier in the process you can kill the spam, the better.
Less resource usage, less "intrusion" into your system, less annoyance. :)

I tend to block everything possilble at SMTP, nothing at procmail,
everything else at SA.  I've tuned my system to the point where I don't
get FNs (maybe one every 6 months or so?), and the only FPs I see are
from a guy posting to a mailing list who hits every RBL I use but no
other rules, kind of interesting.
