Not an enthousiastic answer, but I sincerely hope a 
helpful one:

I would suggest telling your clients to get Mozilla or 
Thunderbird or a local filter program of some kind if 
they must use OE or other email client. Mozilla based 
clients have a Bayes junk filter that works very well.

Concocting recipes for spamassassin is IMO not a 
trivial matter. A lot of it involves Perl regular 
expressions and playing with the scoring files. Pretty 
soon they'll break something bad enough to need help 
and be losing mail.

I know how to do it and I would never suggest to any 
customer of mine that they should try. If they could 
understand that stuff they wouldn't need our help in 
the first place!
