Subject: [BUG & FIX] `nnmail-get-new-mail' fetches too much
Date: 29 Apr 2001 13:19:09 +0200 [thread overview]

Here's a longstanding bug in Gnus, still present in Oort 0.02:
I have a group nnml:cvs with associated spool file
~/incoming/cvs.spool. I also have a spool file called
~/incoming/freebsd-ports-cvs.spool with no associated group.
Getting new mail for nnml:cvs also slurps the freebsd-ports-cvs.spool
file into a non-existent nnml group because they share a suffix.
Bad juju. Here's a fix.

* nnmail.el (nnmail-get-new-mail): Make the generated predicate
more strict to avoid reading in spurious spools.
