"List of directives specifying where to put a message.
"List of directives specifying how to automatically file messages.
Whenever Rmail shows a message in the folder that `rmail-file-name'
specifies, it calls `rmail-auto-file' to maybe file the message in
another folder according to this list. Messages that are already
marked as `filed', or are in different folders, are left alone.
Each element of the list is of the form:
(FOLDERNAME FIELD REGEXP [ FIELD REGEXP ] ... )
Where FOLDERNAME is the name of a folder to put the message.
If any of the field regexp's are nil, then it is ignored.
FOLDERNAME is the name of a folder in which to put the message.
If FOLDERNAME is nil then Rmail deletes the message, and moves on to
the next. If FOLDERNAME is \"/dev/null\", Rmail deletes the message,
but does not move to the next.
If FOLDERNAME is \"/dev/null\", it is deleted.
If FOLDERNAME is nil then it is deleted, and skipped.
FIELD is the name of a header field in the message, such as
\"subject\" or \"from\". A FIELD of \"to\" includes all text
from both the \"to\" and \"cc\" headers.
FIELD is the plain text name of a field in the message, such as
\"subject\" or \"from\". A FIELD of \"to\" will automatically include
all text from the \"cc\" field as well.
REGEXP is a regular expression to match (case-sensitively) against
the preceding specified FIELD.
REGEXP is an expression to match in the preceding specified FIELD.
FIELD/REGEXP pairs continue in the list.
There may be any number of FIELD/REGEXP pairs.
All pairs must match for a directive to apply to a message.
For a given message, Rmail applies only the first matching directive.
examples:
Examples:
(\"/dev/null\" \"from\" \"@spam.com\") ; delete all mail from spam.com
(\"RMS\" \"from\" \"rms@\") ; save all mail from RMS.
Note that this is only applied in the folder specifed by `rmail-file-name'."
