I am experimenting on more complete or detailed categories and scores to control downloading. Following Kais pointer on using 'false' for default I now have a set up like this: default category =false High category =high Re: Category =high Certain groups are assigned to each category. Only one nntp server is involved and is assinged to agent bu default. The score for the 'High' category is a lenghty list of posters in "From" format. The score for the 'Re:' category looks like this: (("subject" ("Re: " nil nil r))) An attemp to catch only the reply postings in certain groups. IT seems this category score is ignored when agent looks at the headers. So none of the articles with Re: in the subject are being marked for download. Four groups are assigned to this category. None of the reply posting are being found. Thinking gnus might be set internally to ignore the Re: part of subject header, I tried it manually on a regular score file and it does score all reply articlces nicely. The info manual says the score for categories are in the same syntax as regular score files. But is the machinery that looks at category scores set up the same as regular scoring? Does the scoring mechanism for category scoring ignore the "Re:" in subject lines? -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
