Whitelisting is a great solution.  I "receive" 200-300 spams per day (perhaps 
more, I've stopped tracking it) but for the past 2 months I have seen only a 
single spam in my inbox thanks to TMDA (http://tmda.net/).  Managing the 
whitelist is automated you just have to be careful with list subscriptions 
and other automated emails that you might receive.
