No, that's correct.

"extra" scoring is another class of scoring.  The header name to be
scored is a (new) 5th element in the score entry in "extra" cases.
This has been in Gnus since sometime in 1998, I think, though I fixed
an annoying string-matching bug just a few months ago.

It's possible that `e'xact scoring is doing something wrong in the
context of extra header scoring -- perhaps the whitespace between
header and content has not been handled properly.  You might try
changing the score entry to a `s'ubstring match instead, and see if
that works.  If so, I'll figure out what's wrong with the "exact" case
and fix it.
