so you have enabled "check incoming mail for junk" under "edit |
preferences | mail preferences | junk | general". this setting only
refers to POP and Local delivery (i know that you could not find out, it
is not part of the documentation, i'M going to file a bug report on
that).
if you use IMAP, make sure you have enabled "check new messages for junk
contents" under "edit | preferences | mail accounts | edit | receiving
options | options".
also, spamassassin needs at least 200 messages marked as spam or ham to
kick in, so you have to train your filter.

afaik you have to have spamassassin installed on your computer to use it
in evolution, it is NOT built-in. make sure the plugin is enabled (under
"edit | plugins").

all in all after reading this, the UI isn't really cool currently.

cheers,
andre
