To be able to access the Spam folder of a Gmail account, the only option for MailWasher unfortunately, is IMAP — however, you can use the following illustrations for the workaround to enable POP3 access to your Gmail account {the illustrations are from a very old (2010) post — shall update them when I get the time}:—

Those illustrations are quite obviously Gmail settings.
