I would second this.  Maybe a little more simple.  "Report as Junk" or
"Report as Spam".

Although I don't have the highest level of confidence in end-users reading
or knowing word meanings - so I'm not sure if it will really make a
difference. But the keyword "Report" would seem to me to indicate that an
additional action is going to happen if you put a message in this folder.
It would at least give fodder for the inevitable "what did you think was
going to happen when you put our message in your 'Report as Junk' folder?"
question when asked to the user.

Other large email service providers should also probably adopt this
language as I suspect their "Junk" or "Spam" folder does the same thing.
