Subject: some messages ending up in 'bogus' group

Dear List,

I recently found that a mail message sent to me ended up in the 'bogus'
group, much to my horror (because I was not subscribed to that one...until
now). I reanalyzed my ~/.gnus, but couldn't find anything that could cause
this, but reading the manual it seemed that this might have something to
do with it:

(require 'spam)
(setq spam-split-group "Spam"
      spam-use-bogofilter t
      nnmail-split-methods 'nnmail-split-fancy
      nnmail-split-fancy
      '(| (any ".*video4linux.*\\|.*Sympa\\|.*helixcommunity.*\\|.*aircanada.com.*\\|.*ostg.*" "Various")
	  ("to" ".*ecolog-l.*" "Ecolog-L")
	  ("to" ".*marmam.*" "Marmam")
	  ("to" ".*mammal-l.*" "Mammal-L")
	  (: spam-split)
	  "mail.misc"))
(spam-initialize)


I added this not a long time ago, after learning to use spam, and I didn't
encounter this problem before that. The relevant info contains:

,-----[ (info "(gnus)Splitting Mail") <lines: 31 - 40> ]
|    The last of these groups should always be a general one, and the
| regular expression should _always_ be `""' so that it matches any mails
| that haven't been matched by any of the other regexps.  (These rules are
| processed from the beginning of the alist toward the end.  The first
| rule to make a match will "win", unless you have crossposting enabled.
| In that case, all matching rules will "win".)  If no rule matched, the
| mail will end up in the `bogus' group.  When new groups are created by
| splitting mail, you may want to run `gnus-group-find-new-groups' to see
| the new groups.  This also applies to the `bogus' group.
`-----

so I guess I followed those instructions above, but perhaps someone can
correct me. Thanks in advance.
