Having many email accounts, I like the default of sending spam to the 
trash of the related account.  Trash is usually otherwise mostly empty, 
and spam is not a large portion of emails received.
(Even with email programs that let easily defining a separate spam 
folder per account.)

That way email remains with account it is sent to, which makes it easier 
to put it into the wanted folder.  (Filters automatically class my email 
into many tens of folders.)
In my experience, many emails classed as spam are legitimate, although 
most are indeed spam.

I just have to be vigilent to catch wanted emails automatically 
classified as spam, before emptying each trash folder.
