Yes

If I understand your first line correctly you are connecting directly with
your MUA to connect to the imap server of mail.com.
In this case you have to scan with your MUA.

based on the scan?
In that case you might to create a imapsieve filter on the imap server
to sort suspicious mail into a spam folder.
