I don't mean the spam status line, but the status line of mbox:
Status: O
or
Status: RO

Since I don't add the above header anyway, that is not my
concern. I could delete the Status headers (formail -I), but
every time I open one of the mboxes (to correct wrong mails,
I found about ten this morning in my spam database) they are
all newly created.
