Possibly. Did you try my patch in ? I think it keeps `score' out of .mrk. > By the way, is the eventual goal of the .mrk files to remove this > information from .newsrc.eld?

Using Gnus with nnml or IMAP without .newsrc.eld would be nice, but backwards compatibility is probably nicer so I don't expect it will be possibly soon.
