Filtering on IMAP is sub-optimal due to various issues, it's recommended
to use server-side filtering in this case.

The built-in junk filter (in my opinion) only works well when Evolution
fetches the mail itself, in the IMAP case this doesn't happen.
Have you tried creating another filter with the Messsage Is Junk test to
move all junk mail to a real folder?
