Gmail blocks incoming messages that contain CSAM, so you don't actually have this concern. It's similar to if someone tries to send you an email with an attachment that has a computer virus. It will never reach your Gmail account - not even your Spam folder.

(In the virus case, they also do a second scan when you open the message - with updated virus definitions to catch new viruses).
