It's likely that something has happened to you user bayes db. That's why I find it helpful to kill off any spamd processes that seem to linger after I close evolution. You can try moving your user spamassassin settings... 'mv $HOME/.spamassassin $HOME/.spamassassin.bak and then launching evolution again and then turn on junk mail filtering. In the end, I just shut it off since I do have spamassassin running on my mail server and though having my own user bayes db seemed to pick up some more via the training within Evolution, eventually it became a nightmare.
