The new spam.el has actions on entering and exiting a spam group: mark
all unread articles with the spam-mark, and process all spam articles
with bogofilter, respectively.  This is (to quote the comment) a bit
raw, but the idea is that whatever is marked as spam when you exit a
spam group should be reported as spam.  Reporting may mean bogofilter
processing, ifile submission, or submission to a spam service.  The
ifile submission, specifically, would tell ifile that this mail was
split to the "spam" folder, but that should be a symbolic entity
rather than the static strings ifile uses right now, because the spam
group names should be customizable.

Ideas and patches to spam.el are welcome, of course.

Thanks
