Hi there,

for one of my email servers I just want to move vom POP to nnimap.

Connection to the mail server works, but the server then sends me my
complete home directory, every single file as a group, not just my mbox
(/var/mail/my_mbox).

In early versions of nnimap there was a variable nnimap-list-pattern
which contains a list groups in which I'm really interested, to omit the
other junk from those imap servers.

As I learned here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2022-01/msg01693.html
that variable does not exist anymore in current gnus version.

Is there another way to filter groups from the nnimap server?
