I don't get much spam on this account since I don't give this address out 
online or to corporations (that's the beauty of hotmail and 
mailandnews.com).  Have you looked into configuring SpamAssassin to be 
similar to bogofilter?  There might be a simple setting change that would 
do it for you.

I guess I'm saying that I don't care which software you use!
