What is probably needed long term is a standard way for email clients to report to mil servers. Google uses the simple expedient of allowing you to move mail to the SPAM folder, which of course all IMAP clients should be able to do.

I marked every one of the millions of Karen Thomas PR messages as spam yesterday. Yahoo's already sending her direct to the junk folder, hopefully Google will catch on too. Too bad ready, since OWC is a decent company worth following. Funny you should mention Gmail spam. I marked every one of the millions of Karen Thomas PR messages as spam yesterday.

With Gmail (whether in the web interface, a thick client like Thunderbird, or the iPhone), moving a message to the Spam folder is the same as marking it as spam. So in the iPhone you can hit Edit, select all the spam messages, the choose Move and choose your Spam folder. This A) gets them moved in bulk and B) does in fact update Google anti-spam engine. NOTE: since I mentioned Thunderbird above... TBird has its own anti-spam engine. Marking a message as Junk in TBird does nothing for Gmail accounts except perhaps to delete the email based on whatever rules you have setup for the Junk mail controls. But dragging it to the Gmail Spam folder in your IMAP list does update the Gmail spam engine. Actually, its there. Its just not obvious.
