I use Pegasus Mail (it is FREE). It has a powerful spam filter, but you have to build up the filtering rules by hand (by which I mean you have to tell it what to filter).

Spammers are forever becoming more creative:

P0RN (zero instead of "O");
P*O*R*N (inserting asterisks) etc.

So it is a never-ending battle but over time I have cut my spam down significantly. You can lock out an entire ISP or lock out a name, "From" "Subject" etc.

Bump for P-mail - to my mind, one of the very best spam-killing email clients.
