Bug Description
Observed behaviour: After upgrading a Breezy system to Dapper (current Evolution 2.6.0-0ubuntu4), spam filtering stops working. Before the upgrade, it was up and working: the spamassassin plugin was enabled and spamassassin was installed.
Workaround: Disabling the bogofilter plugin makes spam filtering works again.
Expected behaviour: Previously configured spamassassin filtering should not be trumped by the appearance of the new bogofilter plugin.
Interpretation: It looks like the bogofilter plugin takes precedence over the spamassassin plugin when both are enabled. Since I never used bogofilter, it was not trained and was effectively non-functional. At most one spam filtering plugin should be allowed. If the spamassassin plugin was previously enabled, the ugrade should not enable the bogofilter plugin.

Thanks for your bug. Daniel, that's an issue we should to fix for dapper, both plugin conflict and can't be used together. Since upgrades should not be broken the bogofilter one should probably not be activated if user doesn't ask for it
