47 Sets things up so that nnmail-split-fancy is used for mail

50
51 If AUTO-UPDATE is non-nil (prefix argument accepted, if called
52 interactively), it makes sure nnmail-split-fancy is re-computed before
53 getting new mail, by adding gnus-group-split-update to
54 nnmail-pre-get-new-mail-hook.
55
56 A non-nil CATCH-ALL replaces the current value of
57 gnus-group-split-default-catch-all-group. This variable is only used
58 by gnus-group-split-update, and only when its CATCH-ALL argument is
59 nil. This argument may contain any fancy split, that will be added as
60 the last split in a `|' split produced by gnus-group-split-fancy,
61 unless overridden by any group marked as a catch-all group. Typical
62 uses are as simple as the name of a default mail group, but more
63 elaborate fancy splits may also be useful to split mail that doesn't
64 match any of the group-specified splitting rules. See
65 gnus-group-split-fancy for details."

103
104 \(: gnus-group-split-fancy GROUPS NO-CROSSPOST CATCH-ALL\)
105
106 GROUPS may be a regular expression or a list of group names, that will
107 be used to select candidate groups. If it is ommited or nil, all
108 existing groups are considered.
109
110 if NO-CROSSPOST is ommitted or nil, a & split will be returned,
111 otherwise, a | split, that does not allow crossposting, will be
112 returned.
113
114 For each selected group, a SPLIT is composed like this: if SPLIT-SPEC
115 is specified, this split is returned as-is (unless it is nil: in this
116 case, the group is ignored). Otherwise, if TO-ADDRESS, TO-LIST and/or
117 EXTRA-ALIASES are specified, a regexp that matches any of them is
118 constructed (extra-aliases may be a list). Additionally, if
119 SPLIT-REGEXP is specified, the regexp will be extended so that it
120 matches this regexp too, and if SPLIT-EXCLUDE is specified, RESTRICT
121 clauses will be generated.
122
123 If CATCH-ALL is nil, no catch-all handling is performed, regardless of
124 catch-all marks in group parameters. Otherwise, if there is no
125 selected group whose SPLIT-REGEXP matches the empty string, nor is
126 there a selected group whose SPLIT-SPEC is 'catch-all, this fancy
127 split (say, a group name) will be appended to the returned SPLIT list,
128 as the last element of a '| SPLIT.
129
130 For example, given the following group parameters:
131
132 nnml:mail.bar:
133 \((to-address . \"bar@femail.com\")
134 (split-regexp . \".*@femail\\\\.com\"))
135 nnml:mail.foo:
136 \((to-list . \"foo@nowhere.gov\")
137 (extra-aliases \"foo@localhost\" \"foo-redist@home\")
138 (split-exclude \"bugs-foo\" \"rambling-foo\")
139 (admin-address . \"foo-request@nowhere.gov\"))
140 nnml:mail.others:
141 \((split-spec . catch-all))
142
143 Calling (gnus-group-split-fancy nil nil \"mail.misc\") returns:
144
145 \(| (& (any \"\\\\(bar@femail\\\\.com\\\\|.*@femail\\\\.com\\\\)\"
146 \"mail.bar\")
147 (any \"\\\\(foo@nowhere\\\\.gov\\\\|foo@localhost\\\\|foo-redist@home\\\\)\"
