I've got 20 users here and am using CanIt but the following has worked very
well for me.



Whitelisting - (Most important)

Greylisting 

Razor - (score adjusted to 5)
DCC  - (score adjusted to 5)

I hold based on a number of DNSBLs and reject on SBL


Increased a few scores like BIZ_TLD

And grabbed a bunch of new tests from the emporium.

Maybe one or two spams slip through in a week.
