Yes, Gmail is much much better than Yahoo! Mail. But I think that giving you a solution instead of an advice would be more appropriate.

In Yahoo! Mail (Classic not the new Beta version)

1. On the home page, click on options (It's on the top right corner).
2. Go to Mail Options>>Management>>Filters.
3. Add a filter filling all the appropriate options.

Though the Yahoo! filter isn't that good, it does filter out about 75-80% of the mails.

Most email services today have an automatic mail forwarding option. Thus if you want to change your primary email id, send a mail to all your contacts with your new email id, and those people who still send you mails on the old id, you can get them forwarded to your new account ;).

Report those mails as Junk and next time they'll be delivered to your Junk folder ..

Yeah .. when you mark any mail as Spam, the sender is added to your Blocked Sender list. You wont get those emails unless they send it from a different address.
