Server side multi user spam protection

Depends on your skill level.

Greylisting (http://projects.puremagic.com/greylisting/) -- this probably knocks out 80% of the spam right off the bat.

I'm not a fan of SpamAssassin, but, many people like it. A quick procmail or mailfilter recipe can get rid of tagged spam. Beware, dealing in the adult industry, you'll likely delete valid messages due to their pre-concieved notion that porn = spam.

My personal favorite is DSpam (http://nuclearelephant.com/projects/dspam/) which is statistical and trainable. There is a quarantine section so that you can see the spams that were tagged and retrain if it has a false positive.

There is also CRM114 which is again statistical.
