[MlMt] Junk folder gets messages when Sieve unchecked

[Ralph Alvy]

I have exactly one IMAP account: Fastmail.

Under Sources, I see Spam. I do not see Junk.

Under Mailboxes, I see Spam and Junk. Both of these are seen as Junk by MailMate when I look at their Type.

Then, on the MlMt side, you see this move occur in the Spam folder and because you also have a local Junk folder - also mapped as Junk - it will mirror whatever is going on in the local-Spam folder. And actually what happens in local-Junk should be mirrored in the local-Spam folder.
