Two possible options. Turn off the Spam Filter at Yahoo or change the Account type at Yahoo to IMAP rather than POP then you can select which Folders you want to look at. The downside of using IMAP is that you will have to move all your good IMAP messages to another folder with your email client after the cycle is completed.

I find that the method which works best for me, in dealing with a Yahoo! account is to use it with IMAP on MWP - instead of, on the e-mail client.

Once Yahoo! is configured on MWP, with IMAP - the Bulk Mail folder can be configured to be scanned for spam, as illustrated below:--
