is there a way to test a corpus of mail?

I see people posting waht looks like a lists of stats they run on a corpus of
mail. I have a corpus that I grabbed from another server and I'm curious how
my rules would react to that mail before I learn it. Is there a way to test
the mail to see if it comes out positve or not.

It's all in a mialdir format and it would be best If it could be done all at
once instead of one at a time.

Thanks.
