Keeping highly spammed branch of email transport alive

[Barry Gould]

I'm having a similar problem... most of the mail that comes into two of my 
mailservers is spam.

However, bogofilter works fine if the messages are not shorter than 2-3 
lines, as there are then enough tokens to balance out the spamminess of the 
headers.

I can't think of a simple solution, other than whitelisting (or 
graylisting?) as you suggested, but this would be best done in spamassassin 
or some other program which supports whitelists.
