*.SCORE question

[Michael Welsh Duggan]

I wish to exlude all of my mail from scoring.  According to the FAQ,
the following will work:

((adapt ignore)
 (local (gnus-use-scoring nil))
 (exclude-files "all.SCORE"))

However, given that I have gnus-use-long-file-name set to nil, where
should I put this score file, and what should I name it?  On the same
note, given that I use nnfolder for mail, how would I override the
previous on a single folder?

"~/News/nnfolder:all/SCORE", for instance.

Put something similar in a group-specific score file.

Unfortunately, I can't do this as I am using NTEmacs, and `:' is not
valid in a file name.

nnheader-translate-file-chars should be translating these to valid
characters for you.  

Check the value of nnheader-file-name-translation-alist -- for
Windoze, it ought to be ((58 . 95) (43 . 45)), which means that the
`:' character will be translated to the `_' character.

The score file will then be "~/news/nnfolder_all/score".
