There is a config option (a checkbox) in the Junk mail settings, which is called "Include remote tests" for the Spamassassin mail filter. Corresponding gconf variable is "/apps/evolution/mail/junk/sa/local_only". But they are in the opposition - when "Include remote tests" is checked, then "local_only" is set too and looks like that only local tests are done. When unchecking, then the filtering process takes longer and is also more precise. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.12.1-3.fc8 evolution-2.21.2-2.fc9 The source file is evolution/plugins/sa-junk-plugins/em-junk-filter.c
Indeed, you're right: check = gtk_check_button_new_with_mnemonic (_("I_nclude remote tests")); ... gtk_toggle_button_set_active (GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON (check), em_junk_sa_local_only); Forwarding this upstream with a patch.
