After I renamed the folder (to "_frogs"), I was able to uncheck the type 
under SOURCES. Once I changed it back to _spam_maybe it will not let me 
uncheck it as Junk but will let me reclassify, but the other options 
aren't applicable and there is no option for "none of the above."

This is all academic anyway since it was a folder for potential junk 
mail so I am OK with the classification, but someone else might want the 
option to have a folder with one of those keywords in it and have it not 
classified.

Your awesome support here in the mailing list tipped my over, I am going 
to buy right now. I was only waiting to see if it went on sale before 
the 30 days was up anyway!
