Not currently.  gnus-ifile.el only supports nnml newsgroups from what
I understand, so processing on summary exit with it in spam.el (which
is backend-independent) would not work well.  spam.el does support
ifile for the splitting of incoming mail, so you can add the ifile
summary exit processing manually until we get a backend-independent
gnus-ifile.el.

The gnus-ifile.el maintainer told me the next release would be
backend-independent.  I don't know when that will be.

Thanks for testing spam.el and for the patch.
