Hi Bjorn,

first of all, sorry for the very late response to you and all the
other people with spam.el questions (especially Reiner Steib).  I was
unable to read ding or contribute to Gnus until now.

I see from your configuration that spam-mark-only-unseen-as-spam is
set.  You should only get messages marked as spam once, when you enter
the group and they are unseen.  After that, they will be unread but
not unseen, so they shouldn't be marked as spam again.  To confirm,
when you enter the second time, is there a dot (.) to the left of the
spam-marked article in the summary line?  If yes, Gnus is not saving
the marks of the articles, that's why you see them marked as spam
again.

If no, set gnus-verbose to 10 and send me the output in *Messages*
when you enter and exit the group twice.  Let me know if you need more
help.

Thanks!
Ted
