Just musing:

the antispam-plugin triggers e.g. an external command, if you fork it, 
give it another name and another setting's prefix, you can configure it to 
spawn sieve-filter on the special "Re-filter" folder, maybe delaying its 
run to gather all messages from a bulk move operation or something like 
that. That said, on small systems even a cron may work.

I never used the sieve-filter tool, though. And the man page warns about 
its useage.
