Hello ppl! Anyone is interested in implementation of scoring system can add his/hers comments at https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=5792
What is the scoring system? The scoring system was born at the news readers. It is not widely known, as for example the filters or the kill files, but it could be proven very useful especially in cases of large volumes of messages. The idea is simple. Every matching message is given a score (negative or positive). Each scoring rule can increase or decrease the score of a message by adding the specified in the filter score value until all scoring rules have been processed. The highest is the score, the biggest is the probability that you have actual interest in message. After that what you can do is limited by your imagination. For example you can flag messages/assign colour etc. You can sort the views by having the highest scored messages displayed on top, you can trash negative scores or whatever! The score rules must be evaluated before the other filter rules if you want to use score as filtering condition. The shortcoming is that mail processing would slow down (especially if you have many scoring rules). Examples Subject match "(beta) is available" score +10 From match "aol.com" score -10 Sender = "My Boss" score +20 -- George M.
