That sounds like your SA isn't configured optimally. Which version of SA 
are you running and are you using Bayesian training? Do you have network 
  tests enabled? Are you using pyzor and/or dcc?

My experience with SA has been 180 degrees from yours. With a good base 
of training and semi-irregular feeding of more spam and ham, it's 
catching well over 95% of my spam.
