Currently, the column configuration is the same for *all* accounts/folders; it 
cannot be configured on a per-account basis (bug 148901, if not others...).  If 
you don't want the column at all, you can turn it off for all.

Even if/when columns can be configured for individual accounts, it would not be 
a good idea to prevent displaying the Junk column in the list of available 
columns on the dropdown menu, nor to turn the Junk column on or off based on the 
setting of the JMC for that account.

I suggest marking this bug Resolved|Invalid.

Even when JMC is off, it's still possible and useful to manually mark messages
as spam using the "junk status" column. Therefore -> Resolved Invalid
