In an afternoon you can clean up your mail, cancel subscriptions, setup some anonaddy or simplelogin emails for future control, and in the span of a week, you kill the remaining spam emails that come and you'll be mostly free of spam forever (aside from very sporadic junk that will be easily deleted).
