If a new group is created by the outside filtering program, does nnmaildir automatically notice this?

Personally the difference between the primary method and the secondary methods is something we should get rid of in general. Everything should be required to have the backend type, but we should make it easier to hide the backend type from the Group list. I think some logic which looked at what groups you had subscribed and only showed the backend/servername if there would be a conflict (same group name subscribed via two different servers, etc) > I guess this won't do anything, since even if "nnmaildir:foo" could > be used as *a* name for the group, it would be the group's canonical > name. > What benefit do you get from making nnmaildir primary? Maybe there's > another way to get that. Well, none really. I just thought it made sense since it was my "primary" backend, meaning I use it all the time. I've changed the primary backend to nnnil and moved nnmaildir to the secondary select methods list and things are working much better now. Messages get marked as read in the sent-(mail|news) groups, but splitting is still messed up. Actually, the initial splitting is working fine, it's the respooling which is busted. I think I'll break out edebug and find out what's going on. If you have any other hints/tips I'd be grateful :) Have a nice day, -- Josh Huber
