Yeah. `gnus-agent-expire' doesn't really work properly, which is why it isn't documented. I need to have it work from the history file instead of what it's doing now. > Is there some way to persuade the agent to use existing scoring files > (especially the ADAPT files) in addition to its own?

Yes... but there are some elements (like "thread" and "body") that can't be used in Agent score files. Hm. Perhaps the scoring code could just ignore those elements while downloading. There needs to be a way to control whether Gnus should use the normal scoring files or the Agent score files when deciding what to download, though. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
