[Mew-dist 06483] mew-refile-ctrl-multi

[sen_ml at example.com]

hello-

  i have a question about the behavior which 'mew-refile-ctrl-multi'
is supposed to control.

  the info pages for controlling refiling say:

    If you want multiple candidates, set `mew-refile-ctrl-multi'
    `t'. Otherwise, set it `nil'.

  so i did this in my .emacs.

  i tried 'o' on a number of messages in summary mode, but i continue
to get only a single candidate.

  being curious, i used edebug-defun on mew-refile-guess and
mew-refile-decide-folders.  

  for a particular message, the return value of mew-refile-guess looked like:

    (("+self") 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-alist "+self") 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-newsgroups) 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-folder) 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-msgid) 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-from "+info/urls") 
     (mew-refile-guess-by-default "+from/david"))

[this gets bound to learn-info inside mew-refile-decide-folders]

  it looks to me like multiple candidates are being identified by the
various mew-refile-guess-by-* functions.

  inside mew-refile-decide-folders, there is some code like:

    ;; multi guess
    ((nth 1 (car learn-info))
     (mew-input-folders nil (mew-join "," (car learn-info))))
    ;; single guess
    (t
     (mew-input-folders (nth 0 (car learn-info))))...

  since (nth 1 (car learn-info)) is nil in this case, execution jumps to the 
'single guess' section.  is this what is supposed to happen?

  also, what is 'guess' suppose to represent inside mew-refile-guess?

  thank you for your attention.
