Ok I do this, but what do I gain, from displaying everything?

Strange results,

In gnus 5.10.6 (or better the official XEmacs version 1.78) I get 
nil in both cases

However in the snap shot I installed yesterday (and which works after
some problems)

I get 

M-: (spam-split 'spam-use-BBDB 'spam-use-blacklist    "SPAM.REAL")
 "SPAM.REAL"

M-: (spam-split 'spam-use-BBDB-exclusive "SPAM.HAM")
 "SPAM.HAM"

This is correct? If so I will stick to the new snapshot version for a
while and then give spam-stat a try.[1]
