This is exactly the principle behind the method that I use.
Most spam is never addressed to you specifically, but so is discussion
list mail and subscribership messages etc. So I filter out all the
legitimate mail not directly addressed to me and filter out the mail
addressed to me. What is left behind is almost fully spam. I then create
a final filter to catch all these 'junk' messages, placing them in my
spam folder and marking them as read. I check the folder periodically to
see if any innocents have been caught, a rare event nowadays. :-)
