Fancy mail spliting?

Fancy mail spliting?

[Patrick Audley]

	I been hacking away at this for hours now and I can't seem to
get my fancy mail splitting to work.  Using simple splitting, all
these entries worked, but once I made the shuffle to fancy, all my
mail (except the mailer daemons, go figure) ends up in
Mail.Alpha.Misc.  Am I missing something?

(setq

Your `nnmail-split-fancy' has the form

(| (mail stuff)
   (& (foo)
      (bar)
      "Mail.Alpha.Misc")
   "Mail.Alpha.Misc")

This means that everything, except mail stuff, will end up in
"Mail.Alpha.Misc".  Some messages should also be crossposted to foo
and bar, but if you read "Mail.Alpha.Misc" first you will never see
them in the foo and bar groups.
