I see. But I don't think it is normal that spam-split (or some other nil-returning function) would be at the end of the split specification. > Anyhow, the big concern, which I just formulated this morning because > my brain works better then :) is that we resplit right back into the > spam group.

IMHO most of this (except infrequent the nil case) would be eliminated by disabling spam-split. --=20 L=F5rentey K=E1roly
