Whoa!! Thanks a billion for that tip. Unchecked junk mail filtering here
& retrieving new mail is about 100 times faster :-)) Now, I wonder what
happens to future junk mail?

after things have settled down, you can probably turn it back on. 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.
