OK, I had it set to move Junk mail automatically to the Junk folder.  
Also, when I manually mark a message as Junk, the message is moved to 
the Junk folder.  (Ah, I understand why you delete the manually marked 
mail instead of moving it.)

It was also set to delete the Junk after 14 days.  Is auto deletion 
bad?  I mean, I don't think I've ever been away from e-mail for more 
than 14 days.
