I've been using TMDA for about a year now, and I recently added Spam Assassin to that.
I've taken a slightly similar approach; I use spamassassin but anything which 'might' be spam (5.0-10.0) gets an autoreply suggesting that if it's genuine mail it needs to be made less spam-like. Replies to actual spam almost always bounce. 419 spams generally score 15-20 and don't get replied to. I still get one or two spams per week that score less than 5.0, but I can live with that. I'm not aiming for 100%, I just want little enough spam that I can still find my real mail :) The script and .procmail is at http://www.wlug.org.nz/AreYouSpam if you want to use it or suggest improvements.
