Gmail gets rid of 99% of the spam I receive. The odd one is still coming from my enquiry form but I have set up a filter which catches most of it . I also changed the position of the form on the website which seems to have helped.

I`d go with the gmail tip, one spam a day at the worst, usually none.

A search in Google for "Captcha" will explain how to insert an image where users have to manually type in a code to send their message. This reduces spam because it requires a (slower) human to do the work instead of a computer.
