Ah, but SpamBayes does use the Spam field. :) It's used in
GetNewUnscoredMessageGenerator() to try to avoid processing a message
twice. I thought the reason SB did the Ensure was to avoid the error
that might be caused by doing a Restrict with a user property that
didn't exist. But, the only place I knew for sure that this was done was
in the new unscored message generator. If that's the only place it's
done, why Ensure at all? [Apologies offered. I'm insatiably curious
about these things from an academic standpoint.]

Well, I guess I _could_ try to put in a good word at Ofcom instead... ;)
