The Junk Mail Button on the toolbar is placed next to the delete button. 
Typically I delete a lot of mail from mailing lists, and over time my hand will
drift and I will click the Junk button.  I unmark the message as junk and move
it back.

This mailbox has never seen any junk mail, and I have unmarked every piece of
email I have recieved.  But now some email entering has been automitcally
detected as junk and moved (prompting me to finally disable junk mail controls).

Basically, I think the Junk Mail button should be moved nearer to another button
less frequently used.  But perhaps im just crazy.

Perhaps you don't realize that the toolbar is customizable?  Right-click on the 
bar, select Customize, move buttons around to your preferred locations.

bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
