You may want to investigate one of the spam protection programs that filters out spam before you download it. It connects to your mail account, examines the mail waiting, and passes on only the good stuff. You can periodically check through the stuff it considers spam to see if any good messages were incorrectly filtered. You may be able to schedule it to do the kind of thing you want done.
