If it is set, the value is used as the method for posting message
instead of @code{gnus-post-method}.
+@item mail-source
+@cindex mail-source
+If it is set, and the setting of @code{mail-sources} includes a
+@code{group} mail source (@pxref{Mail Sources}), the value is a
+mail source for this group.
+
@item banner
@cindex banner
An item like @code{(banner . @var{regexp})} causes any part of an article
@dfn{keywords}. Keywords that are not explicitly specified are given
default values.
+The @code{mail-sources} is global for all mail groups. You can specify
+an additional mail source for a particular group by including the
+@code{group} mail specifier in @code{mail-sources}, and setting a
+@code{mail-source} group parameter (@pxref{Group Parameters}) specifying
+a single mail source. When this is used, @code{mail-sources} is
+typically just @code{(group)}; the @code{mail-source} parameter for a
+group might look like this:
+
+@lisp
+(mail-source . (file :path "home/user/spools/foo.spool"))
+@end lisp
+
+This means that the group's (and only this group's) messages will be
+fetched from the spool file @samp{/user/spools/foo.spool}.
+
The following mail source types are available:
@table @code
:user "user-name"
:password "secret")
@end lisp
+
+@item group
+Get the actual mail source from the @code{mail-source} group parameter,
+@xref{Group Parameters}.
+
@end table
