Unfortunately, evolution filters are not exclusive, meaning that if a message hits one filter, it will continue to check other filters. Hopefully, the evolution developers will add exclusive filters in a future version. To get around multiple spams, I filter for spam in procmail, which adds unique spam header to the message, then I use one evolution filter to move them to the spam folder. I have my own anti-spam filter project (shameless plug -- see my sig), but spamassassin, vipul's razor, and most spam filters all use procmail as the delivery agent.
