As well as turning on network checks in SpamAssassin, use Razor and DCC.
Use DNS blacklists in Exim (the SBL and the RBL+ are very good). Make Exim
reject at SMTP time based on a high SpamAssassin score. Have a whitelist
of known correspondents whose email is delivered to your inbox, and filter
everything else to a folder which you look at once a day. If your spam
load is still to high you can split the misc folder based on spam score
and look at the spam weekly.

It's easy to do much better than that.
