We can't greylist, we'll be validating sender in about a month and
SPF will get done ASA I convince myself I know what it "means".

DaveL puts his finger in his ear and says "Rud" backwards.

Charles,
I'm sure we'd all like to hear of a spam-protection system which isn't a 
PITA to administer
and which actually delivers the message before the recipient dies of old 
age:
greylisting is too slow for our business.
Sadly, in reality, I suspect that what we have here (spamassassin and 
blacklists up the eyeballs)
is about as good as it gets:
evidence to the contrary gratefully received.

Our whitelist has about 6 entries on it for important business contacts 
who use dodgy ISPs.

 > but i doubt it. people that attempt reverse lookups and not SPF are a 
close second.

Hysterical reasons for that, like SPF has only existed for <1year,
uses DNS and has badly publicised semantics
(otherwise I'd have jumped on it long ago).

    Dave.
