As a brief explanation from what I have been able to glean over the
last while:

Average Maximal Minimal - do nothing unless you are using more than
one spam filter, then it would use the average of the two scores, the
Maximum of the two scores or the Minimum.

Delete the message if score is greater than - should only be used if
set quite high, so you can have a chance to review messages before
they are deleted.

Move a message to junk if score is greater than - moves the message to
your junk folder, either in each account or a common folder.

Mark stored junk mail as read - is what you must have originally had
selected to mark your mail as read.

Move messages marked as junk to the Junk folder - is for manually
marked mail.

Use the Common Junk folder - ie instead of one Junk folder per
account.

If you use more than one computer to download email and you get the
same Junk mail on both computers, because you leave messages on
server, there is a trick to only having to deal with the Junk on one
computer. Let me know if this is of interest.
