Gmail – Reprocess mail archive for spam

emailgmailimapspam-prevention

I have a huge archive containing some giga of mail. Once, when I didn't have Gmail, I didn't filter them for spam, so now I have massive spam into it.
Is there a way to let Gmail (or some other application) process that folder for spam, and filter all what it finds for trashing?

I'm quite sure this is currently not possible from within Gmail.

You can try to sync ALL your mail with f.e. Thunderbird or Outlook and look for a way to do the trick in that program, I don't know much of these so I don't know if it's possible with them.

But I'm sure Gmail can't.
