I am using a handmade filter script on a list I moderate, which just bounces
anything with X-Spam: yes.

/etc/alias file entry:

<list>:                     "|dropspam /etc/mail/smrsh/wrapper post <list>"

/etc/mail/smrsh/wrapper is the path to the mailman wrapper script.

dropspam is:

        #!/usr/bin/perl

        $inheader = 1;
        $header = "";

        while (<STDIN>) {
                if ($inheader && /^$/) {
                        open(OUTPUT,"|" . join(" ",@ARGV)) || die "cannot open output: 
$!";
                        print OUTPUT $header;
                        print OUTPUT $_;
                        $inheader = 0;
                        next;
                }
                if (!$inheader) {
                        print OUTPUT $_;
                        next;
                }
                if (/^x-spam: yes$/i) {
                        exit 67;
                }
                $header .= $_;
        }
        close(OUTPUT);
        exit 0;

(It slurps in the header, if it does not like it, it exit 67; , otherwise
 it passes the header and the mail one.)

You could also adapt it to bounce everything with SpamScore >= 10 or similar.
