This explanation appears incorrect. Junk Mail Controls in fact also run
whenever any folder is opened, resulting in mail previously sorted by
message filters being marked as Junk and moved to the Junk folder or
deleted, depending on the settings.
There is an ongoing discussion of whether the current behavior is
appropriate or whether there should be some enhancement to the Junk Mail
Controls.
In any event, I think the description above is misleading and should be
corrected to match the actual behavior of the Junk Mail Controls.
I am the author of this doc, but I no longer read this newsgroup or have
time to fix it. Please file a bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org so that other
interested people can fix this bug.
