I think something akin to select methods would be great :

(setq nnmail-spool-file
      '("/usr/spool/mail/kaplan"
        (nnmbox "/var/spool/mail/kaplan")
        (nnpop "kimminh.kaplan" "utopia.eunet.fr" "This is not my password")
        (nnmapi "user" "foo.bar.com")
        (nntp "news.server.fr" "newsgroup" "authentication key")))

We need someone to code this :-)

Kim-Minh.
