Try running SpamAssassin, a greylist, and filtering all African, Asian, and Russian IP addresses, configure a bogus mail relay for your domain, and impose an unreasonable delay on the real mail relay. The latter two delay the delivery of real mail, but that should prevent 99.9% of spam from reaching your mailbox. Most spam I receive now comes from so-called legitimate sources, such as iVolatility.com and whatever "Get Rich Trading Options!" scheme they are advocating.

I've been using gmail for about 3 years...
And spam is just a distant memory.

Either Google's spam filters are exceptional...
Or spammers don't bother gmail.com...
Perhaps because Google's hackers will take them out one way or another.

I cannot even imagine wrestling with a Stone Age POP3 account.
 
try a program called mailwasher. You can scan the message before actually downloading it to your email clients and if you don't want it you can bounce it back to sender (if possible) Also can remember senders so that it will automatically screen these aholes in the future.
