Well, if you leave Emacs running for months, the following approach won't work (but see midnight.el): Just set nnmail-split-methods to the right value for the current month! I mean, nothing says that nnmail-split-methods should have the same value at all times, right? (setq nnmail-split-methods (list (list ...) (list ...) (list (format-time-string "cf-%Y-%m") "..."))) kai -- This gubblick contains many nonsklarkish English flutzpahs, but the overall pluggandisp can be glorked from context. -- David Moser
