Okay, I've reported this with a patch as bug#33122. The new option name is called `nnir-notmuch-filter-group-names-function'. In the end I decided a t value didn't make a lot of sense -- if users want to pass the group names through unchanged (which is almost certainly a bad idea), they can set the above option to #'identity. By default (assuming this patch is accepted with no change), the filtering *doesn't* do the transform you wanted. You can add your desired behavior (the docstring mentions this) like so: (add-function :filter-return nnir-notmuch-filter-group-names-function (lambda (g) (replace-regexp-in-string "\\." "/" g))) Eric _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
