I can't help you with your IMAP errors, but doing what you need in vanilla
SM may or may not be that easy.  You might look at the Spam_Buttons
plugin, which allows your users to just click "is spam" links or buttons
instead of fiddling around with moving messages.  That plugin does not yet
support moving messages to different folders, but that is on the TODO
list.  In the meantime, you might want to try one of the other methods
supported therein if possible.
