No, messages are only moved to Junk if you have SpamSieve
installed/enabled.

Yes, something like that. For each IMAP account MailMate first looks for
any mailbox explicitly assigned for junk (only few servers do this). If
that does not exist then MailMate guesses based on words like junk,
spam, and bulk. This is just a guess and within each IMAP account (under
SOURCES) you can override it by explicitly assigning the Junk mailbox
type to another IMAP mailbox.

Also greyed out when selected within the IMAP account under SOURCES in
the mailbox outline?
Thanks for trying out MailMate.
