An IMAP server normally should have a junk mailbox. Whether it is called junk, spam, or else depends on the server. Have you checked in the sources the mailbox types for the source mailboxes? It is an item in the popup menu when you right-click on one of the folders in a source. You should have a mailbox for each of the special types set. You may want to first check your subscription to see whether by accident some mailboxes are not subscribed to.

I forgot to mention that the Junk folder is not on the Fastmail server. It is only a local folder created by MailMate. That seems to suggest the only way it got there is via MailMate itself.

But Fastmail has its own folder for that. It's called Spam. And it did not put it in that folder.

I have no Inbox rules at all. Here are the Sieve relevant lines in the
raw message:

X-Sieve: CMU Sieve 3.0
X-Spam-known-sender: no
X-Spam-sender-reputation: 500 (none)
X-Spam-score: 7.2
X-Spam-hits: HEADER_FROM_DIFFERENT_DOMAINS 0.248,
HTML_FONT_LOW_CONTRAST 0.001,
HTML_MESSAGE 0.001, ME_HAS_VSSU 0.001, ME_SENDERREP_NEUTRAL 0.001,
  RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE -0.0001, SPF_HELO_NONE 0.001, SPF_PASS -0.001,
  URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_SPAM 7, LANGUAGES en, BAYES_USED none, SA_VERSION
3.4.2

That's a SpamAssassin header, added by the server. Your mail provider
put that message in Junk, not MailMate. The total score of 7.2 is
significantly above the default SA threshold score for spam (5.0) but
the 'X-Spam-hits' itemization shows that almost entirely due to one
issue: the "URIBL_DBL_ABUSE_SPAM" hit scored at 7. That hit indicates that there was a link in the message body whose domain is listed in the Spamhaus DBL list: https://www.spamhaus.org/dbl. It is rare for the DBL
to list domains that are not exclusively used in spam, but it does
happen.
