It is a 'special use' folder, so it only appears to exist in mail
clients.

I think you misunderstand this feature. This does not create some magic
mailbox that only exists virtually or some alias of the mailbox.
Instead, it makes it possible to find the mailbox with a special use
easily in a standard way.
In your configuration the three mailboxes are separate physical mailboxes.
If Spam doesn't exist, it doesn't exist until it is created explicitly.

I do not have the log file anymore from the home dir. It just
complains that the folder Spam does not exist.

So, does that Spam mailbox exist? The mailbox configuration you posted
tells me that it is at least not created automatically once accessed.
