To clarify, what I meant was the Others folder is just their way of preventing Facebook Users from getting spam in their "Messages" page. Since no one really checks their Others folder, you don't get any spam. The side effect though is that the Others section _may_ have important messages, but Facebook can't risk having spam invade the "Messages" page.
Also if you name the folder Spam, you're acknowledging that the Facebook system can have spam, which is probably something Facebook doesn't want.

Messages are simply tacked onto threads that are months old. Different types of communications are scattered all over the place. Friend requests, direct messages... it's pathetic. Facebook is not that complicated a concept, yet they manage to screw it up royally and never fix it.
