What do you mean by "fair" amount? My version, 2.55, is equivalent to yours, and I get maybe a dozen spam total to 50+ email accounts in a week.

Spam me once, shame on you. Spam me twice, shame on me. uri L_u_greatnewpharm /greatnewpharm\.com/i describe L_u_greatnewpharm Body text references known spammer score L_u_greatnewpharm 9.1 I also check the Received-from chain, and the subject header, to see if I can identify anything there that will help me flag spam.

I can't help you with the install (it was done for me), but it's a marvelous tool you definitely should use (along with the network blacklist tests).
