The test email came from gmail. My server is for the vanity domain I'm currently posting with Gnus v5.13, in GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (Debian) a snippet from my server settings: (nnimap-inbox "INBOX") (nnimap-split-methods nnmail-split-fancy) (nnimap-unsplittable-articles '(%Deleted)) I wonder about that ^^^ last line, I don't actually recognise it. A summary of my fancy-split (with lots of lines omitted) (setq nnimap-split-fancy '(| ("From" "googlealerts.*" "INBOX.google-alerts") (any "c[...]" "INBOX.tmp") ;; Invoke the BBDB (: (lambda () (car (bbdb/gnus-split-method)))) ;; Default mailbox ("INBOX" ""))) _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
