GMail has an absolutely fantastic spam reporting system.

Just check the boxes next to them, and click "Report as Spam" and you will never
see them again.

It takes some time to build up the spam filters like any client, but once you do
it is simply the best.

I only get maybe 1 spam message a month now. If that...

If you would like to try a new account, I can send you a new invite, but I am
willing to bet that if you just give it some time, you as well will be spam
free.

GMail is also try to implement that if one user deems something as spam, it is
likely that most will. So they are testing it now that if one user reports the
spam, the filter takes place for all users within that group.

I am part of the testing team, and so far it is working great.
