I'm not sure how to fix that, but I'd guess your statistics database
got skewed somehow.

I'll follow up in the other thread.

I looked into that, and could not find anything wrong in spam.el's
behavior (I'm pretty sure I posted a message to that effect to the
ding list, asking for some help).  I think the problem was with this
code:

    (dolist (article articles)
      (when (and (memq (gnus-summary-article-mark article) ham-mark-values)
		 (stringp group))
	(let ((gnus-current-article article))
	  (gnus-summary-move-article nil group))))

in spam-ham-move-routine, but when I ran the routine interactively I
could not figure out what was wrong.  I'll look at it again, but
I can't promise I'll do better this time :)
