My hosting company has Spam Assassin, and once I turned it on, my spam worries are almost gone. It was a freebie, too, and it works better than Spam Terminator I used to use.
I run 2 newsletters and I do double opt-in and maintain all subscriber records. Never had a complaint.
I do occasionally get complaints when I post in a Yahoo or MSN group because some newbie subscribes to the group and leaves the default option on, to forward all messages posted to the group to his email address. So when the group post shows up in his inbox he emails me back and asks me how I got his email address, stop spamming him, etc. So I always take a minute to reply and explain to him how to change his Yahoo Group email preferences.
