what about
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
{
   :0 c
   caughtspam

   :0
   | spamassassin -r < spammail.txt

does that even work ?

anyway, i'm quite sure this should be solved outside the scope of balsa atm,
if the above recipe doesn't work a simple shell script can take care of it.
this is one of those things you should be able to with filters though
