I don't use adaptive scoring, but I use the usual scoring stuff all the time in nnimap groups. I use topic mode in the groups buffer. I also use expiration, but auto-expire and total-expire, in nnimap groups. In this case the messages (articles, gnus calls them) are actually removed from IMAP server. The only funny part is that expiration happens when exiting a group, so it's somewhat async and in arrears, but in terms of keeping messages around for a while and then pruning, it works for me. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iEYEARECAAYFAlZwrIwACgkQH9p66AmO1g6W7wCfYTlEyyfJDbcADmmB0snJvPo0 GmgAnA7Kf4ySX/jTQWuZLbTMFMLgEvLs =RfXh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
