Hi,

on a tty (emacs -nw) with light background (e.g. ivory) `spam-face' is
unreadable.  Unless there are objections, I'll change it in trunk and
head as follows:

   :type 'face
   :group 'spam)

I have added a new face because I think that (ab)using
`gnus-splash-face' is not the best idea.  Suggestions (e.g. better
color combinations) are welcome.

Bye, Reiner.

I think it looks great.  Thanks for doing this.
