Hi,
can someone please give me a hint, why nnmail-split-fancy fails to correcly
sort mail when it comes to the `@' character? I have a rule like this:
("from\\|to\\|cc" ".*jobs-opps@" "cmu-jobs")
Yet, when receiving a mail with his header
To: jobs-opps@SHARON.ADM.cs.cmu.edu
gnus fails. If I remove the `@' it works.
Thanks,
Stefan.

I think Gnus does some additional massaging on the regexps in
`nnmail-split-fancy'. One of the things it appears to do (I haven't
checked, though) is something like
(concat "\\<" regexp "\\>")
As "@" isn't a word character (in most syntax tables, anyway :), it
can't possibly be at the end of a word, hence the match fails.
HTH,
