I know.

Yes - that is what the (third part of the) patch we are discussing
(<news:874qq4bjr2.fsf@koldfront.dk>) changes.

That I want to change this, is an artefact stemming from the fact that
I do not want spam in my spam-group automatically marked expirable. 
Thus I keep my spam-group not classified as spam, but non-classified.

If you mark something as ham in a non-classified group, it makes sense
to process it, but not to move/respool it?

Okay, I see the point - to me both choices make sense (so "my version"
doesn't make _more_ sense than yours :-))

Don't make is more esoteric on my account. I can easily keep patching.


The root of my configurations mess is that articles in groups
classified as spam automatically get marked expirable (which I don't
want), so if it's easier to make that configurable, that could perhaps
be a compromise. It would solve the whole problem for me.

Again, if you think that is making spam.el too cluttered, don't change
it for just one person :-)
