Well Joanne has unique ideas about spam filtering but what you say above
is questionable. Spamassassin uses baysian filtering just like spambayes
does. The two programs have about equal spam removal abilities. Using
one after the other is overkill. When used correctly spamassassin should
allow you to remove your spam.
