Bayesian filters are nice, but expensive stuff.
Expensive? In what way? Computationally or band-width wise?
Bayesian filters are individualistic, which means they cannot be run on ISP servers. Pay for all your spam anyway and then locally do your computation (this is nice if you have the spare CPU). Server side filtering, costs ISP bandwidth, disk space, and CPU.
I prefer RBLs.
yeah, sure! Saves you on bandwidth!
Did I mention no filtering expenses? BTW, Postfix 2.x has a nice DISCARD target that lets you silently discard mail. Good way of dropping spam that makes it past the RBL anf access.db checks.
