Back when I was still using Windows, I used to use the in-built one that
came with The Bat! mail client. It seemed to do a reasonable job, and
it was damn quick (unlike the speed of any kind of mail filtering in
Evolution). Though, before that, I'd knocked most spam off, without any
false positives, with about 12 mail rules.
