I have been trying to lower the score of a newsgroup, but I cannot get
it to work at all:

(("extra"
  ("\"uk.d-i-y\"" -1000 nil s "Newsgroups")
  ("uk.tech.digital-tv, uk.d-i-y" -1000 nil e "Newsgroups")
  ("uk.d-i-y" -1000 nil s "Newsgroups")
  ("uk.d.i.y" -1000 nil s "Newsgroups"))

What am I doing wrong? I am trying to stop cross-posts from uk.d-i-y to
uk.tech.digital-tv.

(There is a bracket missing at the end but that is because there are
subsequent parts filterning email addresses which I have not included here.)

You want to match on the Xref header.

Thanks! that worked. I don't know why my attempts didn't work. I guess
one has to be pragmatic.
