(defvar nnmail-split-methods
  '(("mail.misc" ""))
  "*Incoming mail will be split according to this variable.

If you'd like, for instance, one mail group for mail from the
\"4ad-l\" mailing list, one group for junk mail and one for everything
else, you could do something like this:

 (setq nnmail-split-methods
       '((\"mail.4ad\" \"From:.*4ad\")
         (\"mail.junk\" \"From:.*Lars\\\\|Subject:.*buy\")
         (\"mail.misc\" \"\")))

As you can see, this variable is a list of lists, where the first
element in each \"rule\" is the name of the group (which, by the way,
does not have to be called anything beginning with \"mail\",
\"yonka.zow\" is a fine, fine name), and the second is a regexp that
nnmail will try to match on the header to find a fit.

The second element can also be a function.  In that case, it will be
called narrowed to the headers with the first element of the rule as
the argument.  It should return a non-nil value if it thinks that the
mail belongs in that group.

The last element should always have \"\" as the regexp.")

;; Suggested by Erik Selberg <speed@cs.washington.edu>.
(defvar nnmail-crosspost t
  "*If non-nil, do crossposting if several split methods match the mail.
If nil, the first match found will be used.")

;; Added by gord@enci.ucalgary.ca (Gordon Matzigkeit).
(defvar nnmail-keep-last-article nil
  "*If non-nil, nnmail will never delete the last expired article in a
directory.  You may need to set this variable if other programs are putting
new mail into folder numbers that Gnus has marked as expired.")

(defvar nnmail-expiry-wait 7
  "*Articles that are older than `nnmail-expiry-wait' days will be expired.")

(defvar nnmail-expiry-wait-function nil
  "*Variable that holds function to specify how old articles should be before they are expired.
  The function will be called with the name of the group that the
expiry is to be performed in, and it should return an integer that
says how many days an article can be stored before it is considered
'old'. 

Eg.:

(setq nnmail-expiry-wait-function
      (lambda (newsgroup)
        (cond ((string-match \"private\" newsgroup) 31)
              ((string-match \"junk\" newsgroup) 1)

used as incoming mailboxes.")

(defvar nnmail-use-procmail nil

(defvar nnmail-procmail-directory "~/incoming/"

(defvar nnmail-procmail-suffix ".spool"
  "*Suffix of files created by procmail (and the like).
This variable might be a suffix-regexp to match the suffixes of
several files - eg. \".spool[0-9]*\".")

(defvar nnmail-resplit-incoming nil
  "*If non-nil, re-split incoming procmail sorted mail.")

(defvar nnmail-read-incoming-hook nil
  "*Hook that will be run after the incoming mail has been transferred.
The incoming mail is moved from `nnmail-spool-file' (which normally is
something like \"/usr/spool/mail/$user\") to the user's home
directory. This hook is called after the incoming mail box has been
emptied, and can be used to call any mail box programs you have
running (\"xwatch\", etc.)

Eg.

(add-hook 'nnmail-read-incoming-hook 
           (lambda () 
             (start-process \"mailsend\" nil 
                            \"/local/bin/mailsend\" \"read\" \"mbox\")))")

;; Suggested by Erik Selberg <speed@cs.washington.edu>.
(defvar nnmail-prepare-incoming-hook nil

The hook is run in a buffer with all the new, incoming mail.")

;; Suggested by Mejia Pablo J <pjm9806@usl.edu>.
(defvar nnmail-tmp-directory nil
  "*If non-nil, use this directory for temporary storage when reading incoming mail.")

(defvar nnmail-large-newsgroup 50
  "*The number of the articles which indicates a large newsgroup.
If the number of the articles is greater than the value, verbose
messages will be shown to indicate the current status.")

(defvar nnmail-split-fancy "mail.misc"
  "*Incoming mail can be split according to this fancy variable.
To enable this, set `nnmail-split-methods' to `nnmail-split-fancy'.

The format is this variable is SPLIT, where SPLIT can be one of
the following:

GROUP: Mail will be stored in GROUP (a string).

\(FIELD VALUE SPLIT): If the message field FIELD (a regexp) contains
  VALUE (a regexp), store the messages as specified by SPLIT.

\(| SPLIT...): Process each SPLIT expression until one of them matches.
  A SPLIT expression is said to match if it will cause the mail
  message to be stored in one or more groups.  

\(& SPLIT...): Process each SPLIT expression.

FIELD must match a complete field name.  VALUE must match a complete
word according to the fundamental mode syntax table.  You can use .*
in the regexps to match partial field names or words.

FIELD and VALUE can also be lisp symbols, in that case they are expanded
as specified in `nnmail-split-abbrev-alist'.

Example:

\(setq nnmail-split-methods 'nnmail-split-fancy
      nnmail-split-fancy

      ;; the ordinary groups.  Warnings are put in a separate group
