Lars> (setq nnmail-split-methods Lars> '(("mail.misc" ""))) In short what I want is the ability to put a spool file, or list of spool files in the group parameters. I have multiple spool files in a directory specified by nnmail-procmail-directory, that are generated by procmail. With the way gnus currently works I have to have a final rule that sends mail not handled by previous rules to that directory as a file mail.misc.spool. Instead of the mail going mail.misc.spool, I would like it to go to /usr/spool/mail/holder. This doesn't won't work because it's not in the nnmail-procmail-directory, and doesn't end with .spool, so my misc.mail group can't find it. If I was able to tell the misc.mail group to read from /usr/spool/mail/holder, and ignore nnmail-procmail-directory/misc.mail.spool my problems would be solved. -- Shane Holder e-mail: holder@rsn.hp.com Hewlett Packard phone: (214)497-4182 3000 Waterview Ignorance isn't so bad, as long as Richardson, TX 75083 it's not accompanied by stupidity.
