Running Bogofilter on mailing list stuff prefiltered before Bogofilter is run

Sorry for the subject line.

I have Bogofilter setup on Kmail, and it works fine. I have 6 mailing lists 
that are filtered into individual maildir boxes before Bogofilter deals with 
the remaining stuff.

Over the last 2 days a lot of sex spam has been turning up in my Debian 
maildir box. The Debian list is high volume, which is why I'm filtering it 
before Bogofilter runs.

I know this is asking a lot, but is there some way that I can rerun Bogofilter 
again on specific maildir boxes, after it has already dealt with the 
remaining mail that has been downloaded. 

Sorry I'm not being too clear here.

I have 6 Kmail filters setup to send mailing list mail to individual 
mailboxes. Bogofilter runs after this mail has been filtered, and works just 
fine on the remaining mail. Spam goes to the trash, ham goes to the inbox, 
and I get a few unsures.

I'm probably asking a bit much, but is it possible to run Bogofilter again on 
the mailboxes that were filtered before Bogofilter ran. I'm thinking 
particularly the Debian mailing list one. It's filtered before Bogofilter 
runs, so I end up with a load of sex spam in it, which Bogofilter hasn't been 
able to get it's hands on.

Any suggestions anyone?

Nigel.
