How about setting up an action?  It would be in the form of a CLI command, in
case you never set up one before.  Also, I think you can even assign a
shortcut to the action, but my GTK knowledge is too basic to elaborate on
this matter.  I believe Sylpheed won't have any problems reconstructing the
folder cache file.

Then it's just a matter of having focus on Sylpheed + your keyboard shortcut
in order to wipe your spam folder.  You won't even need the mouse if your WM
is properly set (which I doubt given your comments :) ).
