Many years ago (mid-90's), I made the mistake of using my work email address when posting to some programming forums. I now receive thousands of junk mail a week and unfortunately my employer won't change my email address. I'm finding that Mail is not particularly good at identifying junk mail as I get the same crap over and over every day. Each day I mark it as Junk... and each day it shows up in my Inbox again. For example, every morning there is an email for Gevalia coffee from "Gevalia <smtp@quitzaq.com>". Why can't Mail figure out that it's junk? I mark it as Junk every day!!! That's just one of many examples. I still get hundreds of similar junk emails showing up in my Inbox daily. I'm meticulous about marking them as Junk... but it doesn't seem to help.

Advice anyone?

Well, I'd start by defining some rules to chuck out the repetitive stuff.
Then if you need to up the ante, I hear people have good results with:
SpamSieve: Powerful Spam Filtering for Mac OS X

Really this should also be something your employer can handle at the mail server level as well. I'd ask them to consider getting Sophos, or implementing Spam Assassin if they haven't.
