60 uses are as simple as the name of a default mail group, but more

105 GROUPS may be a regular expression or a list of group names, that will
106 be used to select candidate groups. If it is omitted or nil, all
107 existing groups are considered.
109 if NO-CROSSPOST is omitted or nil, a & split will be returned,
110 otherwise, a | split, that does not allow crossposting, will be
113 For each selected group, a SPLIT is composed like this: if SPLIT-SPEC
114 is specified, this split is returned as-is (unless it is nil: in this
115 case, the group is ignored). Otherwise, if TO-ADDRESS, TO-LIST and/or
116 EXTRA-ALIASES are specified, a regexp that matches any of them is
117 constructed (extra-aliases may be a list). Additionally, if
118 SPLIT-REGEXP is specified, the regexp will be extended so that it
119 matches this regexp too, and if SPLIT-EXCLUDE is specified, RESTRICT
120 clauses will be generated.
122 If CATCH-ALL is nil, no catch-all handling is performed, regardless of
123 catch-all marks in group parameters. Otherwise, if there is no
124 selected group whose SPLIT-REGEXP matches the empty string, nor is
125 there a selected group whose SPLIT-SPEC is 'catch-all, this fancy
126 split (say, a group name) will be appended to the returned SPLIT list,
127 as the last element of a '| SPLIT.
129 For example, given the following group parameters:
132 \((to-address . \"bar@femail.com\")
133 (split-regexp . \".*@femail\\\\.com\"))
135 \((to-list . \"foo@nowhere.gov\")
