Alternative: Use a Color Group "Junk" and create filters for read and
incoming mail. A message can easily be marked this way (as junk in
this case) using an email's context menu ("color group"). Then your
filters do the following job:

 - Read: Put the sender of mails marked as Color Group "Junk" into
         the Addressbook / -group "Junk" and move the mails to an
         appropriate folder (like Trash) afterwards.

 - Incoming: Put every mail from anyone in Addressbook "Junk" into
             another appropriate folder (like Trash).

Additionally I'd add another filter (after processing your mailing
lists and newsletters) which kills every email that is not directly
addressed to you. This is most likely spam, too.
             
It should even be possible to extend this to a "Selective Download"
filter but this is slightly more complicated:

 - Read: Write mail + kludges marked as Color Group "Junk" into a
         file (select append).

 - Selective Download: Craft regex. signal strings matching Joe
                       A. Spammer's kludge-patterns* and check
                       "Load Strings from File" pointing at the
                       file previously created using the Read-
                       Filter using the "Match any string as a
                       regular expression".

Good luck,
