The CommuniGate email server can stop a lot of these kinds of things.

Not that I want spam it is that I don't want to loose legitimate messages.

I agree with this, there are just too many things that can give false spam
indications. Some things can be done to reduce spam without trying to guess if
it is a real message or spam.
