Hello,

I'd like help to conditionally configure the address of my IMAP
server, depending on the fact I'm at work or at the office (they
have a different address through the use of VPN and NAT).

I already tried the following, but without any success!

    ,----
    | (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '(
    |       (nnml "")
    | 
    |       (nnimap ""
    |               (nnimap-address
    |                 (cond ((string= (upcase (system-name)) "PC3701")
    |                            "169.51.86.39")
    |                        (t
    |                            "mail.mywork.com")))
    | )))
    `----


Currently, I'm using different "back-ends", but I dislike it (as
it breaks some configuration of default groups where to put sent
messages - GCc -, etc., as the names are different)...

    ,----
    | (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '(
    |       (nnml "")
    |
    |       (nnimap ""
    |               (nnimap-address "mail.mywork.com")
    |
    |       (nnimap "home"
    |               (nnimap-address "169.51.86.39")
    | ))))
    `----

Can you help me?

Merry Christmas!!!
  Sébastien
