[wellylug] Spam

I use Paradise and have a dynamic SMTP mail account for my domain.  All my mail ends up there (although I think I need to have a wee chat to them about what happens when I am on holiday for a couple of weeks - I think people have been getting messages about the host being offline) and then when I dial up (therefore a dynamic IP) the mail is collected by my Mdaemon mail server at home and mangled as required.

I think the time has come to get one of my Linux boxes to get all of my
email from my ISP (via. Fetchmail most likely). This part I can do without
too much trouble, but my main issue is what can I use to easily weed out
Spam from the email received on the accounts that I will be using Fetchmail
to check (around 6 accounts)?

Also I am at some stage considering getting my own domain name and have
emails coming to that, the issue there is that since I am on ADSL and don't
have a fixed IP I guess I'd have to use a multidrop POP? Are there any other
options?
