Okay, Lars and I have been having some problems with this one for a while
and it is still not resolved to my liking.

I switched over to nnml a few months ago with procmail (well, something
like it) splitting the majority of my mail into spool files on
nnmail-procmail-directory.  However, any leftover mail gets left alone and
goes into my /usr/spool/mail/jvinson (my nnmail-spool-file) which is also
read when snarfing mail, according to the documentation on
nnmail-use-procmail.

Now, I have all my mail groups set at levels 1 and 2 with all my news
non-mail groups set at 3 and below.  As a result, I should be able to
simply 'C-u 2 g' to get new mail.  However, when I do this, the mail that
has been pre-split is correctly dumped into their corresponding nnml
groups, but the mail in nnmail-spool-file is all slurped into a single mail
group.  This single mail group happens to appear first in the list of
groups in my .newsrc.eld.

I would be happy if someone can corroborate this.  Lars and I would be
happy if someone could come up with a source of or solution to the problem.
