Every email, I am asked if it is spam.  This did not happen
yesterday or any
other day since I started running Thunderbird.

So it may not just be you.  Something has changed.  Hopefully it

Thunderbird has a facility whereby you can have it mark as junk

The option is is available in the main window: Tools>Account
Settings>Junk Settings
There is no such setting. The setting is to not mark as junk anyone
in you addressbook.

I beg to differ.  In Thunderbird 2.0.0.18 Tools -> Account settings
then you select the account in which you are interested and listed between "Disk Space" and "Return Receipts" is "Junk Settings."

There are a few global junk mail options under Tools -> Options -> Privacy.

I have found the Thunderbird junk mail filter to be very good.
But, it does need to be trained. One trains the filter by manually marking an email as junk (or if it is already marked as junk, by marking it as "not junk" with one click.

BTW, my Thunderbird does not mark Open office user's mail as junk.
