With your help, here's a macro for mutt that does just that. It marks
all tagged bogofilter messages as spam, and then deletes them, without
using the "d" key, which is already bound to mark messages as Ham.

macro index \cd "<tag-prefix><pipe-entry>formail -s bogofilter -s\n<tag-prefix><delete-message>"
