Re: Replacing Gnus nnmail-split-fancy badness with bbdb goodness

Adam I only use gnus-private, so that I can have per-user sorting,

So each related BBDB entry has a gnus-private tag, right?  That'll
handle "other mail" and "people" in my example before.

Adam gnus-public will handle mailing lists, but it's intended to
Adam override gnus-private and uses regexps.  You set up rules with
Adam it instead of what you currently have in nnmail-split-fancy, but
Adam I don't think it will be any simpler than your "diplomacy"
Adam regexp.

Where does gnus-public get set?  This confuses me a little.

Adam I can't think of a way to simplify your diplomacy regexp.
Adam Anyone else?

I've attached my current attempt -- a function and two variables,
basically, plus a "fake" message-fetch-field to make testing easier.
It appears to work, so I'm going to give it a try, but I thought I'd
let the list give it a peek first.

Adam You can have both nnmail-split-fancy and bbdb/gnus-split-method.
Adam (That's the gnus-split-nomatch-function.)  I use the former for
Adam mailing lists and the latter for individuals.

Yes, but you can't embed bbdb/gnus-split-method in
nnmail-split-fancy.  I want to keep the antispam features of
nnmail-split-fancy, but gnus-split-nomatch-function would run
nnmail-split-fancy *after* bbdb/gnus-split-method, which would be
nonoptimal, I'd think.

Adam Does this make sense?  Alternately, what would you like
Adam gnus-split-method to do?

I'd like to embed bbdb/gnus-split-method in nnmail-split-fancy, such
that some processing takes place before BBDB is used to file mail, and
some processing takes place afterwards.

 NB: for some reason, byte-compiling bbdb-gnus.el broke this for me.  Removing
 the bbdb-gnus.elc fixed the problem.

Can you reproduce this, and give me a stack trace? I don't use Gnus
for mailreading myself, so I don't generally have an opportunity to
play with this stuff a lot.

Replacing Gnus nnmail-split-fancy badness with bbdb goodness

2001-01-26 Thread Jack Twilley

I've got a brutally ugly and hard-to-maintain nnmail-split-fancy
variable in my .gnus file and I vaguely remember someone having
documented some way to add something to a bbdb record, and then have
gnus magically file emails sent to that person into the right folder.

Does this exist?  Am I dreaming?  Is it still around?

Jack.
(help?)

There's a fairly ancient package called gnus-bbdb.el floating around
that works for me; you define a field in the bbdb record that directs
gnus to file the mail.

It works fine, but doesn't currently play nice with fancy splitting.
Here's a URL:
