So spam-use-* is not neccessary?  Perhaps the manual should be changed
to reflect this?

Hm... I can't (actually "won't") do it that way.  But thanx for the
tip!

Putting spam-process into all gmane groups' group parameters, is too
much work, and is something I'd have to remember when creating new
groups. 

So I guess I'll have to figure out how to set up the
gnus-spam-process-destinations variable.

I tried the following,
  (setq gnus-spam-process-newsgroups
	(list 
	 (list "^nntp+news.gmane.org" 'gnus-group-spam-exit-processor-report-gmane)
	 ))

and then entered a gmane group, marked the spam articles with M-d, and
exited the group.  The minibuffer messages were
  Marking spam as expired without moving it
  Exiting summary buffer and applying spam rules

How do I know if the setting of gnus-spam-process-newsgroups "took"?
I don't think it did, because the exit was too fast.

It wasn't held up by doing 6 HTTP requests to gmane.

Thanx!
