No, that's intended behavior. If there are no criteria then we assume 
that the filter actions should be executed unconditionally. From the 
mathematical, logical point of view this assumption is correct because 
if there are no criteria then obviously all/any of the criteria match.

Simply execute Tools->Anti-Spam Wizard. It should be self-explaining. If 
you still have questions then check the section about the Anti-Spam 
Wizard in KMail's manual.

FWIW, since we can't check whether using the spamd/spamc combination 
will work (because spamc can't give us this information) the Anti-Spam 
Wizard only supports the usage of the much slower spamassassin perl 
script. Therefore you should change the filter which is created by the 
wizard by replacing 'spamassassin -L' with 'spamc' (provided spamd, the 
spamassassin daemon, is running on your system).

Ingo
