Hmm, not sure. I use a different style: I tick messages I want to keep, and the rest is automatically expired after the time I want (this is for mail, of course). However, I doubt that such a bug could go unnoticed, so it is probably a feature. (Really, no joke.) I would ask on the Ding mailing list (the list dedicated to the Gnus versions in development, see www.gnus.org), *never* ask on the regular Gnus newsgroup about development versions. >> up URLs to tutorials tomorrow or next week. > Yes please. http://www.socha.net/Gnus/ ftp://ls6-ftp.cs.uni-dortmund.de/pub/src/emacs/tutorials/tutorials_toc.html (has a Gnus section) (There seem to be more tutorials in German than in English :-) > Please could you explain how you use auto-scoring?

I don´t do anything specific: enable it [(setq gnus-use-adaptive-scoring t) in your .gnus] , then let it work. It makes notes about the authors you are reading and the subjects. (This usually work best if you also *skip* messages). You can influence the scoring with some options (an example from my .gnus): ;;* SCORE ;;*================================ ;;* Scoring away stuff I find boring (defvar gnus-default-adaptive-score-alist '((gnus-unread-mark) (gnus-ticked-mark (from 4)) (gnus-dormant-mark (from 5)) ; (gnus-del-mark (from -4) (subject -1)) (gnus-read-mark (from 2) (subject 1)) (gnus-expirable-mark (from -1) (subject -1)) (gnus-killed-mark (from -1) (subject -3)) (gnus-kill-file-mark) (gnus-ancient-mark) (gnus-low-score-mark) ; (gnus-catchup-mark (subject -4)); (from -1)) ) ) Adaptive scoring somehow just works for me. Try it two weeks, and it knows stuff about you your psychiatrist didn´t find out ;-) > On Sun, Oct 24, 1999 at 04:02:01AM +0000, Manoj Srivastava wrote: [...] >> authors that I dislike slhowly slip below my radar.

If you suddenly realize a subject or author is very cool, then press I a s p on that message, and it lets you specify a regexp on the From-line. I s s p is the same for Subject. Etc.
