I use nnml for all of my emails. All the individual groups are grouped (for want of a better word) into a few topics (e.g. work & personal). Then I can search a whole topic with a single command. I use notmuch which allows me to say "date:today" or "date:yesterday" (or specify an actual range of dates etc.). That suffices for me generally and I do use splitting quite a bit. TL;DR: use gnus search instead of the limit feature in gnus. -- Eric S Fraga via gnus (Emacs 29.0.50 2022-11-01) on Debian 11.4
