Is this supposed to be a valid value for this variable with the new mail source stuff? If so, perhaps the documentation could be updated to mention it? By the way, nnmail-spool-file doesn't appear in the index. Dan PS: The documentation gives an example of the form: (setq nnmail-spool-file "po:username") Is this still valid? Whether or not it is, it's probably a good idea to update this example to the new format. -- Dan Christensen jdc@math.jhu.edu
