I agree.
I have my own server with spamassassin installed - I reckon it captures about 99.5% of spam. A few slip through such as the odd-eBay and bank spoof/phishing and the you-must-buy-this-stock-now junk. I used to get 300+ a day with my former provider, now it's down to 5-6.
I can only guess most ISP don't use that sort of technology for fear of deleting something important
