Question SPAM Filtering

I am having lots of trouble with employees e-mail accounts and SPAM. We have an e-mail server running MailGate and it does having SPAM filtering running. Some SPAM is still getting thru. I went to the ISP side to look at the accounts and they are loaded with SPAM. I can set filtering in the actual accounts on the ISP side, but since the SPAMMERS have begun to change the spelling of the key words they use I fear that the filtering will allow some to pass. Most of the e-mails, of course, are drug pedaling for viagra, cialis,etc... and they are putting extra letters in the words. One of them had this [23] in the subject. If I set a filter to deny [] will it catch any number between the brackets? Does anyone have any helpful filtering assistance they are willing to bestow upon me? Point me to some tutorials, anything. Thanks.

Talk to these people. Many of them own and operate email services.
