I see this point. But it's a problem to delete it. -=> database inconsistency. :-/

How about a spam queue. Move all spam emails into this queue (that's all - one click). 
There is a program called GenericAgent.pl, this can close all tickets in the spam 
queue (via cron). 
 
 -=> Each spam email needs just one click.

No. You can move tickets from one queue (e. g. accounts) into a other queue
(e. g. software) without sending a email (on this move action) to the customer.
