Hi,
please do not take this as an expertise guidance, it's just an idea
how to make things easier for you.
I agree with you to use your distribution's package as the starter.
Better to not get into a dependency hell. Install necessary
development packages, like if you'd like to build whole evolution,
together with the evolution's itself development package. Do not
install any source packages.
The trick is that the bogofilter module is only a module, just few KB
binary plus some GSettings/GConf definitions (which are always
installed) and nothing else. No need to compile evolution for it, if
you can use the development packages.
Let's say your bogofilter can be run as:
/usr/bin/bogofilter
and there exists a file
/usr/share/evolution/default/C/mail/local/Inbox
It's possible that your version of evolution has a version number in
the folder names, just check it.
Download evolution-bogofilter.c from [1] and save it anywhere in your
system, just that you'll find it. Then compile it:
$ gcc -shared -fPIC -DPIC evolution-bogofilter.c \
-DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"evolution-bogofilter\" \
-DGETTEXT_PACKAGE=\"evolution\" \
-DWELCOME_MESSAGE=\"/usr/share/evolution/default/C/mail/local/Inbox\" \
-DBOGOFILTER_COMMAND=\"/usr/bin/bogofilter\" \
`pkg-config --cflags --libs evolution-mail-3.0` \
-Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--export-dynamic -Wl,-soname \
-Wl,module-bogofilter.so \
-o `pkg-config --variable=moduledir
evolution-shell-3.0`/module-bogofilter.so
If everything will go smoothly you might get it. Start evolution and
you should see Bogofilter settings in Edit->Preferences->Mail
Preferences->Junk tab.
Please note that this is not an official way of doing things, thus it
might be possible that something will go wrong. If it does, then
delete module-bogofilter.so from evolution's module directory [2].
Bye,
Milan

You said you use 3.10. If you use a different version, then pick a
different branch.
[2] It's the result of the below command,
can be something like /usr/lib/evolution/modules
$ pkg-config --variable=moduledir evolution-shell-3.0
