Works for me.  The advantage of the nnmail-split-fancy method over
this is that it allows for a compact representation over all headers
and not just the issuer.  For instance,

("type" "spam" ("issuer" "clewis")
               ("issuer" "fubar))

is somewhat clearer than writing two separate rules with the same type 
selection. 

Then again, most people probably wish to base it on the issuer.
Either one works for me.
