If you run bogofilter using -B option, followed by the list of files
containing the sent mails in question, and the -n option to tell
bogofilter that you want these mails classed as non-spam, this should
do what you want. 

You can also follow the -B option with a directory name, but I've
never tried that. i presume it works, since I've not seen anyone
complaining, :)
