Score file ignored?

Score file ignored?

[Dmitry Yaitskov]

Hi,

I have the following in my .gnus.el:

(setq gnus-home-score-file
	  '(("^rec" "rec.SCORE")
		("^comp" "comp.SCORE")))

And here's my rec.SCORE file:

(("subject"
  ("playlist" -1000 nil s)
  ("money" -1000 nil s)
  ("^\\(FS\\|WTB\\|WANTED\\|WTD\\|NEED\\)" -1000 nil r)
  ("$" -1000 nil s)
  ("!" -1000 nil s)
  ("free[^a-z]*$" -1000 nil r)
  ("our prices" -1000 nil s)
  ("for sale" -1000 nil s)))

Now, not that it doesn't work... but, it does not work *sometimes*.
I.e. I opened a rec.* group, and my scoring definitely was off - lots
of articles with all the stuff that shouldn't be there. I looked at
the file, even edited it, re-entered the group - no effect. Then, I
selected "edit current score file" from the menu, got my rec.SCORE
file, added a new - basically meaningless - line there, C-c C-c, and
voila! - my scoring caught on. Does anybody know what's wrong here?
Thanks.

Sounds like your score cache wasn't flushed.  If you want to edit the
score files outside of Gnus, then you should `W q' to flush the
cache.

No, the way I see it it still displayed a bug in gnus - the score file 
that was ignored by gnus was there at the time I stared gnus. It had
all the necessary rules then, my editing it was just an attempt to
make gnus aware of what had been there before gnus stared (I suppose
gnus doesn't keep caches between runs).

`W f' in the group buffer, I meant.

That's odd.  Are you able to repeat the bug?

No. I'm still reasonably :) sure of what I wrote earlier... dunno.
