Gmail's spam filter sucks

I’m starting to get really disgusted with Gmail and I’m almost ready to give up on it. Their spam filter has become a lot less effective lately and seems to have stopped learning when I use ‘report spam’. This morning I found *FIVE* spams in my inbox, all telling me that I won something. I’ve seen those same spams before and I reported them multiple times, yet Gmail’s filter still hasn’t learned that they’re spam.

I’m drowning in spam. I get over 200 a day, most of which do end up in the spam mailbox, but those 5-10 that end up in my inbox every day are especially annoying. If it continues, I will stop using gmail since it’s starting to be more of an annoyance than useful. I prefer using their web interface rather than Mail.app, which is the only reason I continue to use it.
