This isn't a chat site; it's populated by users just like yourself, so you have to be patient. Even if no one responds, after a couple of days an Apple representative will likely see the lack of a response and post something helpful.
Here are three that they would most likely suggest right away:
iCloud: Identifying and filtering junk mail
iCloud: Why am I getting junk mail (spam)?
If you're getting too much spam sometimes you simply have to abandon that email address and create another. Keep your email addresses limited to those you trust, and never post them on a publicly searchable website (such as this one).
What email client program are you using? Mail.app? If so use iCloud mail.
iCloud mail spam filtering is very good. I have received three or four spam emails in total, in all the time I've been using iCloud mail. Even if you never divulge your email address to anyone, spammers will simply send to hundreds of millions of randomly generated addresses. For those that get through, set up Mail's junk mail filter.
