Is there any point at which a particular spammy email will no longer show up in Junk?

From what you said, it sounds like my preferences ought to cause SpamSieve to filter messages that are in the Junk mailbox and put them in trash.

The settings in your screenshot will make SpamSieve move the more spammy messages (score of 90/100) directly to Trash instead of Junk. This does not affect messages that were moved to Junk by a server junk filter (which you can identify by their lack of background color).

I still have the script we figured out to manually filter the Junk mailbox, and it still works, but if there is a way to filter messages that are in the Junk folder without running a script, I’d much rather do that.

I think we set up the rescue script to move messages that the server junk filter moved to Junk to Trash. The script will run automatically if you attach it to a rule.
