This doesn't work well for me. No, you don't. All followups to your messages will be caught by the following scoring rule: ("references" ("" 200 nil r)) Stick it in all.SCORE and you're all set. If you use more than one workstation or account, look at your message IDs to form similar patterns for those machines and add similar entries. I've been using this technique for four or five years now at least. -- Russ Allbery (rra@stanford.edu)
