Finally I've manged to convinced our isp news admin to uncomment the
famous xref line so I figured i can use xref header scoring. However
I encounter with this oddity. my rec.arts.sf.written.SCORE look like
this:
(("xref"
("alt.fan.heinlein" -6000 nil s))
("subject"
.....
("Heinlein" 5000 nil s)
.....
)
(mark-and-expunge -10))
At the summary I saw an article that I thought was supposed to be
low scored. I did Vt and got this line:
("Heinlein" 5000 nil s) -> rec.arts.sf.written.SCORE
But after I read the article I got this from Vt:
("alt.fan.heinlein" -6000 nil s) -> rec.arts.sf.written.SCORE
("Heinlein" 5000 nil s) -> rec.arts.sf.written.SCORE
telneting directly to the server give me this information:
XOVER 20065
224 data follows

.
What am I missing?

This is typical behavior when the Xref header isn't included in the
NOV files.

And this was the article that you got those results on? In that case,
I can't explain the behavior. However, if it was an older article,
then it probably just means that the article arrived before the
"Xref:full" line was added to the overview.fmt file. (Doing so
just changes things for articles that arrive after the change.)
