[nmglug] Evolution junk filter

[js at jasonschaefer.com]

Yeah, Mozilla Thunderbird works better than anything I have seen. It has
a built in bayesian filtering that learns from you as well. The
filtering rules are very intuitive and powerful as well.

You can also install a calendar plugin or use the standalone sunbird
app. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/
