FWIW, this is essentially the same thing as I do, too.  In my case not to
keep track of what spam I've checked (I mark as read as well), but because
my spam folder is on an Exchange server, where space is expensive and
limited, and my "all my spam" folder is in a local pst file, where space is
cheap and essentially unlimited (since I keep all my spam).
