Are you talking about things that happen when the user types g in the group buffer, or are you talking about things that happen when the user is sending mail? I assume the former. Isn't there a form that uniquely identifies a group among all the different servers (or select methods?) that exist? Stuff like "nnfoo+baux:bar"? Couldn't that be used in nnmail-split-methods? And would it make sense to have the nnmail-use-procmail stuff use the same names? And default to the old server if the server spec isn't present, as is true currently? kai -- The arms should be held in a natural and unaffected way and never be conspicuous. -- Revised Technique of Latin American Dancing
