Bogofilter is supported, but it turns out there is a(n obscure) setting
in Edit > Preferences > Mail Preferences > Junk which is 'Default junk
plugin: ' and this had nothing selected.  I've selected 'Bogofilter',
the only option in the list (I've disabled spamassasin) and now spam
filtering works.

After the last update, evolution is not doing this a bit better, but not
right.

I thread my messages, and it not seems to be sorting by Date in a
descending order (most recent at the top) based on the last message in
the thread (instead of the first one).

I'm not sure what implications this has for re-ordering when old threads
get new messages (will the move to the top of the page) but it isn't
what I would expect, which is that threads are sorted based on the
original message in the threads date.

I'd still like to know how to compile the livna nvidia drivers (messages
off list happily taken) but Ajax informs me that the 'nv' driver is
'hibernate only'.
