Yes, I was omitting some detail, and that was probably wrong.  If you have
WANT_TRASH set to DO then articles not in the active file will be filed
into junk.  INN does not do this by default, and I really *really* discourage
you from doing it.  The interaction of DO_WANT_TRASH and 'x' groups and 'j'
groups it not intuitively obvious; some have asked me to change innd's
behavior in this case, and I've refused.
