For a heavily spammed domain, even a fast domestic connection and a
powerful mail filter can't keep up with the incoming dross. You might
want to consider a professional filtering service which shouldn't cost
too much for a handful of addresses and gives you the advantage of a
dedicated service keeping up with spammers. You probably have much
better things to do with your time than tweaking procmail recipies. :)
