The eternal scourge.

My Mac Mail application does a good job of learning the difference  
between junk and mail. Once you spend some time with it, it works  
close to 99% of the time. You do have to be pretty diligent with  
working on it early on. My big saver is my junk accounts. I use my  
yahoo or excite account when I need to give someone I ma not sure of  
an email address and save my real one for VIP's

The Gmail account I keep touting has a good spam filter, too.
