Attempted to migrate from kmail (my only non-gnome holdout) on a new
installation and badly ran into this bug.  The upstream bug has now been
open for three and a half years.  The workaround mentioned in the
upstream buglist does not seem to apply.  This makes the "junk" feature
useless as I cannot tell which new messages to use to train the junk
filter.

As upstream acknowledges the bug, but apparently will neither fix it nor 
provide a configuration option, I would strongly suggest to disable the Junk 
feature by default and put a warning next to the checkbox:
  Edit -> Preferences -> Mail preferences -> Junk -> Check incoming messages 
for junk

The Ubuntu bug is apparently not new with hardy either (2+years).  By
what criteria is this bug of "low" priority?  It makes me feel as if I'm
using mail incorrectly...  What is the recommended workaround?
