Just found this:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/95037
which points to an interesting bug report regarding the bogo &
spamassassin plugin options:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257091
[Bug 257091 – Junk UI shouldn't appear without actual spam filtering
support] -- starts way back in 2004.
