Adaptive scoring is not a bag-of-words approach. Usually, you'd use it to up-score threads you have actively read (automatically, just by the fact that you read messages in the thread) and down-score threads you caught up without reading (again, automatically by the vitue of catching up the summary without reading some messages). Then, when sorting threads according to score, you get threads of interest on top and the others below. Like for Eric, that has served me well for years. Bye, Tassilo
