Does anyone have a suggestion for a robust and reliable SPAM blocker?
Exim has great features for denying, not just blocking, spam during

very strong ACLs. It also has a robust concept of sender callout
verification, which is perhaps the single most effective technique
for blocking spoofed messages and most spam.
Aside from exim I also recommend crm114. (And watch Dr. Strangelove
if you don't get the joke.)
I hear you singing the praises of EXIM and I have no doubt that it
is everything you say it is but some of us without your vast
knowledge shy away from adding yet another software package to
replace what Apple has already provided.
You don't have to replace postfix, you can just add exim as a front
end. SMTP is all about relaying mail, one MTA handing off to the
next. Just add
It just ads one more piece of complexity and something we have to
look after on our own.
It actually is less complex than what you're already trying to do.
Things I prefer to look at are plugins for Postfix.
I fail to see how this passes your added complexity test ;)
