Hi,
Let's say that you subscribed to a lot of groups (mail, news,
mailing lists, ...) and post to some of them: how do you track the
threads you started when all your threads are in different groups?
- Move the groups on the top of your list?
- Put them in some topic called "Wait feedback"
- Write on some Post-It or in some file?
- Some elisp magic?
- ...

Well, rule one: mark up responses to your posts by sorting by
scoring. Do this by adding something like the following to your
~/News/all.SCORE file:
(("references"
("<\\(x7\\|sd\\)[a-z0-9_]+\\.fsf\\(_-_\\)?@\\(my\\.host\\.domainname\\.com\\)>" 20000 nil r)))
which scores up posts responding to me (from the machine
my.host.domainname.com) by 20000.
Within the group buffer, however, I don't do sorting. I use topics to
put stuff into groups and I have a pretty good feel about which I need
to keep on top of...
