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

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