Problems with gnus-registry

[Jake Colman <colman@ppllc.com>]

I am starting to use gnus-registry so that emails are filed in the same
folder as its parent.  Unfortunately, it does not seem to be working.
Hopefuly, I am simply just misusing it in some way.

These settings appear in my .gnus file:

-----------------------------------------------

(setq gnus-registry-max-entries 2500
      gnus-registry-use-long-group-names nil)

(gnus-registry-initialize)

(setq nnimap-split-fancy
      '(|
        ; some up-front splitting
        (: gnus-registry-split-fancy-with-parent)

-----------------------------------------------

I will typically send an email such that, using gcc-self, it wil be filed
into a specified group.  I would expect that gnus-registry would auto-file
any reply to that email into the same group as its parent.  Instead, it gets
filed using the other rules contained in nnimap-split-fancy.

Similarly, I will sometimes manually copy an unread email into a specific
group.  I will then go to that group, and reply to that email.  Again
subsequent replies are not filed with its parent.

Finally, incoming emails might be auto-filtered into a specific group via
nnimap-split-fancy.  I will then go to that group, and read and and reply to
that email.  Again subsequent replies are not filed with its parent.

Should gnus-registry handle these cases as I am expecting?  If so, what do I
need to do to make it work?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
