run blocked sender rules on messages in inbox

[33QM]

hi

ive just set up a bunch of new names as blocked senders. is there a way to
run the junk mail filter now so that all these names are now moved from the
inbox to the junk mail folder. something like when you set up a new
rule.\\thanks

No. Junk rules only run as new messages arrive.

FWIW, using the blocked senders list is generally pointless spammers change
their from address often. The total number of names on the blocked and safe
senders list is 2000 (combined).
