A:

While your profile shows you are on 10.8 the concepts are the same

Mail (Yosemite): Reduce junk mail in your inbox

also anyone with your email in their address book on a public email system like yahoo and google, etc can inadvertently contribute to your spam count. If you sign up for sites with your email or if someone uses your email address then expect the entities behind these sites to continually bombard you with junk because it costs them nothing to do so and they can make money selling your account info.
