Are you using any extra rules? Maybe some from sare
(http://www.rulesemporium.com/)
You could also try some of the digest tools like DCC, Razor, Pyzor, etc..
It takes some amount of tinkering to keep a server efficient with catching spam.
I have to look at mine at least once a week to check for things getting by. I
also have users send me things that get through consistently so I can write
custom rules if I have to.
