nnimap-split-fancy and regexp

nnimap-split-fancy and regexp

[Uwe Brauer]

Hello

I receive mails from the Moodle forum, which typically have the
following header:


Subject: Using Moodle: Re: Cannot get moodle to follow a symlink on	localhost
In-reply-to: <moodlepost391135@moodle.org>
X-Mailer: PHPMailer [version Moodle 2007101506]


So what I want is to configure 
 nnimap-split-rule  and nnimap-split-fancy respectively 

Such that all this mails are moved to a Imap folder called Moodle

I tried the following

   ("Reply-to:" "Do not reply to this email <noreply@moodle.org>" "Moodle")
   ("X-Mailer:" "PHPMailer [version Moodle 2007101506]" "Moodle")
   ("Subject"  ".*\\[Using Moodle:\\].*" "Moodle")
   ("Subject"  "\\[Using Moodle:\\].*" "Moodle")
   ("In-reply-to:" "<moodlepost0@moodle.org>" "Moodle")


But none really helped and the mail was moved to my HAM folder.

Most likely this is a problem of regexp but I don't know how to set
that up correctly.

Anybody can help

Thanks in advance

Well but this functionality seems not to exist for the 
*nnimap* backend.

Did you try?  But first, do you understand now why your rules don't
match?

No, I did not try, and I neither understand why 
("Subject"  ".*\\[Using Moodle:\\].*" "Moodle")

does not work. As far as I understand regexp (and I must admit I don't
understand them very much),
 ".*\\[Using Moodle:\\].*"
states match anything followed but Using Moodle followed by anything

(info "(gnus) Fancy Mail Splitting") says

    "Normally, VALUE in these splits must match a complete _word_
     according to the fundamental mode syntax table. In other words, all
     VALUE's will be implicitly surrounded by `\<...\>' markers, which
     are word delimiters. [...]

      1. You can set the `nnmail-split-fancy-match-partial-words'
         variable to non-`nil' in order to ignore word boundaries and
         instead the match becomes more like a grep. This variable
         controls whether partial words are matched during fancy
         splitting. The default value is `nil'. [...]

      2. VALUE beginning with `.*' ignores word boundaries in front of a
         word.  Similarly, if VALUE ends with `.*', word boundaries in the
         rear of a word will be ignored.  For example, the VALUE
         `"@example\\.com"' does not match `foo@example.com' but
         `".*@example\\.com"' does. [...]"

It matches the string ``[Using Moodle:]'' (including brackets) surrounded
by anything.
