Can I do info://gnus/Washing+Mail as > nnimap splitting happens? I don't think that will work. You could try, however, to add duplicate suppression to the gnus-registry and use that; I am thinking of something like this in the fancy split: (: gnus-registry-split-duplicates "duplicates") ; or 'delete The problem is what to do when the message has no message-ID of its own, as you mention. It should be pretty easy to generate a unique message-ID for the registry based on unique information such as the subject and sender, while preventing collisions from multiple messages with the same subject and sender. Perhaps the time or the message's backend information could be used.
