Subject: Help needed: nnmaildir and create-directory parameter.
Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2022 11:44:22 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r0xtohmh.fsf@sekai.mail-host-address-is-not-set> (raw)
Hello everyone,
According to the manual, for a `nnmaildir' server, if my split rules
create new groups, I need to supply a `create-directory' server
parameter[1]. Ok, so considering the following example snippet:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(customize-set-variable 'gnus-select-method '(nnnil ""))
(customize-set-variable 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nntp "news.gwene.org")
(nnmaildir ""
(directory "~/Mail/maildirs")
(target-prefix "")
(get-new-mail t)
(create-directory ...)))) ; <-- Here
(customize-set-variable 'mail-sources '((file :path "~/Mail/emaple_mbox")))
(customize-set-variable 'nnmail-split-methods '(("inbox" "")))
#+end_src
Following the example snippet above, what is the expected value for the
parameter `create-directory'? Unfortunately the manual brings no
details about it.
I've been experimenting with some ``logical'' values (basically the same
values accepted in `target-prefix' parameter), but every time I get an
error and a crash box[2].
Can anyone help me with this matter?
Thanks in advance.
