nnimap-split-rule with 2+ headers

[Tibor Simko]

Hi gang:

How do I match for 2+ header lines in one nnimap split rule?  I've
tried to match for `[.\n]*' hoping that it would continue to look
through following lines, but to no avail.

What I want to achieve is: all email addressed do `support@bar' goes
to `g1' group, except for the email coming from domain `foo'; the
latter should generally go to `g2' unless it is a reply to one of the
emails living in `g1'.  I've tried to use something along these lines:

 ("g1" "^From:.*@foo[.\n]*\\(^To\\|^CC\\).*support@bar[.\n]*^References:")
 ("g2" "^From:.*@foo[.\n]*\\(^To\\|^CC\\).*support@bar")
 ("g1" "\\(^To\\|^CC\\).*support@bar")

Thanks,

-TS

Are you sure the headers always are ordered this way? I think To/CC
usually comes before From, but of course you can't rely on that.

Perhaps we should see if the fancy splitting stuff work with the
nnimap splitter...

Yes, please!  It's been on my to-do list for a while, but still not
yet done.  If someone does it, they'll get my thanks (and a beer if
they're ever local to me).

I tried `nnmail-split-fancy' with the nnimap splitter just now and it
worked.

(setq nnmail-split-fancy ...
      nnimap-split-inbox "INBOX"
      nnimap-split-rule 'nnmail-split-fancy)

I can confirm as well that it works for me without any apparent
problem.

Yes, the order of headers is sort of random.  In spite of it, I think
I checked that the regexp would not match even if the order is okay.

Have not tried it, since people reported problems, IIRC.

Really?  I don't think anybody has tried it yet!  (I'm on the ding and
nnimap lists.)

You seem to be right, I just checked both ding and nnimap archives.

Does it work to set nnimap-split-rule to nnmail-split-fancy and to
then set nnmail-split-fancy appropriately?
