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

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