exactly the same behaviour with trash, by the way, but without that
buttons.

junk filter is a virtual one. that means that all messages remain in
their folders, but if you mark them as junk they will get a flag which
says "this is junk". now they behave like "deleted" (but are not) and
also will be shown up in the junk folder.

no, trash is trash and junk is junk. :-) although i also don't get the
sense of that (marking mails as junk obviously means that i do not want
to read them), a bit related perhaps to
