[MlMt] Junk folder gets messages when Sieve unchecked

[Robert Brenstein]

It sounds like a local Mailbox Junk got assigned the type of Junk (or 
Spam got renamed locally) and it is mapped onto the standard (for that 
server) mailbox Spam on the server. In other words, it is the same 
mailbox (folder as you call them), just named differently locally and on 
the server.
