Subject: Gnus mail splitting headaches
Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2003 17:45:40 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2he0noypn.fsf@syr-24-59-76-83.twcny.rr.com> (raw)
I am using Emacs 21.3.50 built from CVS.
I just migrated to Gnus -- for mail and news -- and I love it.
However, I just realized today that my mail splitting has been sending
50% of my e-mail to mail.junk (for seemingly no reason). This is
legitimate e-mail, and if it weren't a holiday and I weren't having
fetchmail save all e-mails on the server and then double checking it
with Evolution I would really be in a stew.
Below is my .gnus for mail splitting:
,----[ mail splitting rules in my .gnus ]-----------------------------------
|
| (setq nnmail-split-methods
| '(
| ;; for all the mailing lists I subscribe to I'll have an entry like this:
| ("mail.mysql_listserv" "^To:.*mysql@lists.mysql.com.*")
| ("mail.mysql_listserv" "^Cc:.*mysql@lists.mysql.com.*")
| ("mail.mysql_listserv" "^Bcc:.*mysql@lists.mysql.com.*")
| ;; send junk email to /dev/null
| ("mail.junk" "^To:.*vim@vim.org.*")
| ("mail.junk" "^From:.*@yahoo-inc.com.*")
| ;; these last lines are supposed to be a catch all for
| ;; any e-mails addressed to me so they don't go to mail.junk
| ;; I used to have an entry like:
| ;; ("mail.unfiltered" "")
| ;; but it still didn't work
| ("mail.unfiltered" "^To:.*dan@mathjunkies.com.*")
| ("mail.unfiltered" "^Cc:.*dan@mathjunkies.com.*")
| ("mail.unfiltered" "^Bcc:.*dan@mathjunkies.com.*")
| ))
`----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What am I doing wrong? It's really weird. Virus e-mails
(like the "Security Update From Microsoft") have a tendency to get
through, but seemingly random e-mails will get dropped to junk. For
instance, the mySQL listserv will have 25% of its e-mails sent to junk
and the rest correctly put in the mysql_listserv. What am I doing
wrong?
Thanks for your help,
Dan
