RE: Any Tools - Gmail Spam Issue
if you're using the gmail web interface - no. programs who read mail online and delete the annoying mail automatically (for gmail) don't exist (yet, because they can be created easily by someone who has a minimum of knowledge about the subject).

you can use filters (in the gmail main interface) to filter common words and trash the messages automatically.

you can also use a mail client (like outlook) which has spam filtering plugins (or extensions for thunderbird, or whatever) which will help you fight the wave.

a hint you might want to consider is tell people to use clear subjects and add your frequently mailed people to your gmail contacts.
