Xref's does not work if your newsserver doesn't have xrefs in the
overview files.  Also, it doesn't work on articles crossposted to groups
you don't have on your server.

Tsk, Andy! :-)

>>From the info pages:

     If the key is a string, it is the name of the header to perform the
     match on.  Scoring can only be performed on these eight headers:
     `From', `Subject', `References', `Message-ID', `Xref', `Lines',
     `Chars' and `Date'.  In addition to these headers, there are three
     strings to tell Gnus to fetch the entire article and do the match
     on larger parts of the article: `Body' will perform the match on
     the body of the article, `Head' will perform the match on the head
     of the article, and `All' will perform the match on the entire
     article.  Note that using any of these last three keys will slow
     down group entry *considerably*.

So, you could use

  ("head"
   ("Newsgroups:[^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*,[^,]*," -1000 nil r))

but I wouldn't advise it...
