My guess is that Dave had multiple summary buffers open and spam.el
doesn't keep separate article lists per summary buffer.  So on exit,
spam.el tried to look up missing articles.

See my earlier e-mail on the topic of spam2.el.

Haven't seen it since then, so yes, I think so.

If that's indeed the cause, it sounds to me like a real bug that should
be fixed.  No?

Yes.

We could keep the list of articles as a buffer-local variable in the
summary buffer.  I think that would be a pretty minimal change.
