To complicate matters, of course, is that I have adaptive scoring turned on as well. What I realized I'd like is to quickly see why the given line is near the top. So, wouldn't it be cool to highlight the matching regex in the summary buffer with, say, a different background color? How hard would it be to pull this off? (unfortunately, I think this is likely over the head of my internal-gnus-knowledge so I doubt I'll do it. Thus I offer it as an idea for someone else to pull it off). The problem, of course, is that you don't want to do it for adaptive scoring. This may mean pain. -- "The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it." -- Terry Pratchett
