That worked. This is a test setup of Horde, and I had changed ingo to use
the SQL driver backend, so those prefs values weren't working. It looks like
the SQL driver has the SPAM filter hard coded to disabled = true when it
first inserts it into the database. However, I prefer the prefs backend, so
all is well.
