Recall that I have gnus-spam-process-destinations set to (("^nnimap:" "nnimap:INBOX.makespam")). (Made a mistake makespam vs spam there.) So how do I tell spam.el NOT to apply this rule to the nnimap:INBOX.makespam group? Formulating a regexp that matches everything that "^nnimap:" matches, except "nnimap:INBOX.makespam", is difficult. Hm. Maybe I could set a group parameter on nnimap:INBOX.makespam that overrides the value with nil? Or I could put in two entries: (("^nnimap:INBOX.makespam$" nil) ("^nnimap:" "nnimap:INBOX.makespam")) If it searches the alist from the beginning and uses the first match, then it would work. It's getting a bit complicated. I'm sure the reason is that I'm doing something wrong. I stumbled across this thing within five minutes; everybody must be having the same issue. Except, of course, if they take another path where there is no stumbling block. Do people put all ham groups in one topic and all spam groups in another, then use topic parameters on those two topics, to avoid this problem? Kai
