Hi everybody.
Recently I decided to give gnus a try (switching from thunderbird). I
use imap from gmail. I was reading the manual page on www.gnus.org
section 6.5. I had some trouble getting splitting to work, mianly
because nnimap-inbox (maybe it was nnimap-split-inbox), and
nnimap-split-methods are not mentioned there. Also
nnimap-split-predicate (nnimap-unsplittable-articles maybe). I had to
read the source code and figure out what was going on. I know it's my
fault not to have read the C-h i from the beggining. But maybe the
internet manual should be correct to avoid more people going through
the same.
