Very nice, but I only see three messages. And what's the third pane on the right top for? It only has my name in it and can't quite figure out what it's supposed to be doing. > The top line is a normal-scored (0 points) thread, goes white and > each mail in it gets auto-expunged (deleted) when it gets to be 7 > days old. Straightforward. I do scoring myself, but I don't take any action based on that score yet. If I were to do auto-expunging, I would probably do it after 30 or 45 days. I like to keep a rather large backlog of Cooker. It's much faster to look through that than to look through the online archives. > Second line (your mail) is a highest-scored thread, because a) it > has posts by me and b) all @mandrakesoft.com authors get automatic > high score in all my mdk mailing lists (so I know who has the last > word :) So both scores get added to get to highest-score (anything > over 9,000 points) Ok, that makes a little bit of sense. To see what mine looks like, take a look at http://www.cerritoslug.org/tutorials/mutt.html and click on the three links for the Sample Screen Shots. You'll also note that you and Ben were not scored at the time that I made those screenshots. Both of you are now :) Plus I also score in single digits. I think I WILL adjust the highlighting based on score though. That certainly helps to identify interesting posts (ie Linus, AC, Ingo, etc) > Third line is a high-score (between 3,000 and 9,000 points) thread > because I've posted to it. I think I get it. It's only showing threads, not individual messages. I would be tempted to call that a "folded" view. Mutt has the ability to expand/collapse threads, however, the score it shows is only of the original message of the thread. It doesn't seem to let the top score through as the predominant score of the thread (ie, yours seems to be scoring threads, whereas mutt only seems to score individual messages...I'll have to look more into that...maybe those developers aren't so crazy after all for using gnus :) > Uninteresting threads (those I've marked read without opening) get > negative scores and are colored an ugly brown.
