I'm using crm114  http://crm114.sourceforge.net/

It doesn't have any scores to fiddle with and it starts off completely
stupid and must be trained.  Once trained it is supposidly far more
accurate that spamassassin, but it does have one anoying tendency:
While spamassassin let quite a few spams leak thru, false positives were
very rare. crm114 has about equal numbers of false positives and false
negatives.  If your server is hardware limited crm114 also is much less
of a CPU/memory load.

Another baysian filter is http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/
which has a web based front end:  http://schumann.cx/bogo-fe/

There is also http://popfile.sourceforge.net/

There are probably others, but those are the popular ones.
