This is not a new bogofilter install.  I installed the bogofilter plugin
when I installed Fedora 16 three or four months ago.  I had backed up my
Evolution data before installation.  It was working fine until a few
days to a week ago.  In any case I have unchecked every thing in the
junk preferences sheet.  It seems to be sorting perfectly.  Will wait a
bit to see what to do next.   

Will check for ham and spam.
