Ok, I have been processing some spam today and I got to confirm that the "Not Junk" icon IS now themed.

However, since the themed icons for "Junk" and "Not Junk" are completely different, the issue about consistency in the Human icons for Evolution still remains.

I believe that if the icons show opposite actions their representation should also reflect this fact. In this way, they can provide a more intuitive hint of their functionality to the user.

For example like in the default GNOME theme -as I was pointing on my first post-, where "Junk" and "Not Junk" are the same image, only that "Not Junk" shows a little red cross indicating negation.

Another example of such opposite or complementary actions and their icon representations are the Send/Receive buttons, which are handled correctly in the Human theme -that is, represented in an intuitive form. Both icons are envelopes, the only difference of which being the direction and colour of the bottom arrow.
