Well, I don't want to face the wrath of YUM &/or APT complaining about 
unmet dependencies every time I do something package related.
But thanks for the tip on the second setting for JUNK-MAIL-FILTERING 
under "Mail Preferences"  When I turned that off it appears that 
evolution doesn't start any "Spamd" processes when new mail comes in.

This is good, saves *39MB* of RAM !!!
And about 10 minutes a day of CPU.
I don't know how SPAMD could be *THAT* bad, I mean sheez 39MB of used 
RAM and 10 minutes to process a few hundred e-mails that probably total 
just a MB or two of total data...  That is sad.
