"The critical factor for me is the absence of false positives. Thunderbird spam-filtering, Spamato, Vipul etc etc all catch an occasional genuine email -- which make them effectively unusable for me. Cloudmark for Outlook, powered by Vipul's Razor, was pretty good, but still let through loads of spam. You, by contrast, seem to have processes which effectively turn off the spam faucet."
