Global scoring?

Global scoring?

[Graham Hughes]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I remember the possibility of applying the L/U commands to the global
score file (Lars, you had the very flavorful idea of `L M', as Lower
Moron...); did this ever make it into the source?  I would find it
rather useful, as Dan Bernstein has once again awoken from his slumber 
to wreak flames upon the living, and I'd like to catch them all at the 
same time.

V c all.score RET

`V c' is gnus-score-change-score-file.

Yeah, but it would be nicer to change it only for a single score
setting.  I actually tried for 5 mins. to write a hack to call this
before calling the scoring commands and then change it back aftwards,
but it still got saved in the group specific file.   Never got a
chance to check into it further, and last time I had asked Lars he
wasn't interested in doing it himself...

It would certainly be nice though, you are right.

GNUS and authentication

[Rolf Marvin B|e Lindgren]

I have the following:

(defun nntp-send-authinfo ()
  "Send the AUTHINFO to the nntp server.
This function is supposed to be called from `nntp-server-opened-hook'."
  (cond 
   ...
   ((string-match "nntp.uio.no" nntp-address)
    (message "opening nntp.uio.no")
    (nntp-send-command "^.*\r?\n" "AUTHINFO USER" "*")
    (nntp-send-command "^.*\r?\n" "AUTHINFO PASS" "*")    
    (message "opened nntp.uio.no"))))

[actual user and password replaced by "*"]

Emacs says "opened nntp.uio.no", then hangs.  as a matter of fact,
this has been the behavior since early versions of DING.  

I'm behind a firewall, which unfortunately means a) this can be part of
the problem b) it's difficult to get other people to look at this
directly.

any suggestions, anyway?

Yes.  The scoring commands take the `a' symbolic prefix to use the
"all.SCORE" file for the current scoring command.  `L M' can be
implemented as `M-u a L a s p RET'.

What is your `nntp-server-opened-hook' variable?
