Don't give out your "main" email address to anyone apart from your friends/family and don't use it for any websites, some of whom sell your address on to those who spam. Also, never put your email address on show in an open forum, this is the spammers delight.
You could always open another email (webmail) account for when you do online shopping, or enter competitions, forum uses etc which you can then "throw" away if you get too much spam, and then open a new one.
