There is no such parameter now.  The logic for moving ham out of spam
groups is:

    ;; now move all ham articles out of spam groups
    (when (spam-group-spam-contents-p gnus-newsgroup-name)
      (let ((num
	     (spam-ham-move-routine
	      (gnus-parameter-ham-process-destination gnus-newsgroup-name))))
	(when (> num 0)
	  (gnus-message 6 "%d ham messages were moved from spam group" num)))))

so it only works in spam groups.  The belief is that ham is already
in the right place outside of spam groups - why should you respool
it?  It only makes sense to process ham outside of spam groups.

Anyhow, I guess this logic can be changed, but I don't think it makes
sense.  I'm not sure anyone but you would find it useful, and adding
an extra option similar to spam-move-spam-nonspam-groups-only would
complicate the code and documentation without gain for the other
users.

If you feel strongly about this, and/or anyone else wants to comment,
feel free.  I just don't want to make spam.el too esoteric.
