If my ISP marks an email as spam, and moves it to the spam folder before the Mac OS X Mail.app sees it, Mail.app does not mark these emails as spam.
This wouldn’t be too bad if there was a way for me to efficiently mark these as spam (so that I can review them just in case without triggering one-pix image trackers and the like), but there does not seem to be one:
- Keyboard shortcuts are a non-starter, as they require the message to be selected first.
- Right-clicking the emails one by one to mark them as spam (which requires going in a submenu each time) is tiresome.
- In Lion, I could select multiple of them (being careful never to select only one spam) and mass-mark as spam without viewing any of them, but that stopped working when Mail.app got the ability to show multiple message selections as a pile of messages.
- I can re-position the dividers or resize the window to hide the message view pane and mass-mark at that time, but that requires re-positioning them back manually each time, and that won’t do.
Is there something I have missed?

setting not work for respecting your ISP's spam markings? Besides that, I'm not sure, you'd probably have to view them and mass select usingCommand + click
