Turns out that Ubuntu does NOT install spamassassin along with
Evolution. I installed it, and now see "learning junk" or some such
message in the status line when I click the junk button. 

It would have been nice if evolution had somehow warned me that the junk
button was doing nothing because it could not find spamassassin, but
maybe the ubuntu people did something to suppress that.

At any rate, hopefully it is fixed now.

Thanks,
