Spamassassin is your friend, or any program that can at least guess spam and put it in a separate folder, so that at least your inbox becomes slightly less messy. I'm sure there are somebody in the vicinity who could help you with some spam-filters, try pulling the "I really don't understand these darn machines and I think I broke it again could you please have a look?"-puppy-eyes-trick. :) t., who didn't read mail yesterday, lucky there were only 40 work- related mails and most of them informational only.
