This is too much hassle. I don't know how integrated Evolution is to SpamAssassin these days (I barely use it as I don't like its interface), but one would be much better with POPFile: <a href="http://popfile.sourceforge.net/" title="sourceforge.net">http://popfile.sourceforge.net/</a sourceforge.net>
POPFile has the better Bayesian-based detection filters that I ever saw and it rarely fails when tagging your e-mails. Of course, like any other Bayesian-based spam filter, you'll have to spend some time "training" it in order to ensure that it will classify your e-mail properly, but I achieved that on just one week and I've seen several testmonials that claims the same thing. (Keep in mind that your mileage may vary based on how much e-mail you receive on a daily basis and the noise-to-signal ratio, of course)
The only catch is that you have to gotta used to manage it through a web interface, so you gotta keep it opened in your browser sometimes in order to perform some tweaks here and there, but probably you'll get used to it, and after some time, you'll rarely need to do that.

It's definitely worth a look!
