I thought, if I put a mail into the spam folder and after sa learned it, there 
would be no question that the Bayes score for this mail would be high, the mail 
would be detected as spam. But it happens often that I get this kind of spam 
mail again.

Are the settings I posted all right?

One crucial thing you didn't post: you ran the learning as root. Is the user that spamd is running as also root? The bayes database is user-specific, and a common problem is to train the database as a different user than the MTA+spamd is running under.
