Version: 0.7.1 (using KDE KDE 3.0.4) Installed from: SuSE RPMs There are 3 things in Knode's Scoring - which is already very good - I'd just love to see in future versions: a) a regexp editor like in Kmail (which probably will be there anyway once Knode und Kmail are "merged"?), b) ability to score on any possible header line (currently, it's "only" possibile to score on Subject, From, Date, Message-ID, Lines and References, I'd like to have e.g. X-Newsreader and User-Agent added...) and c) ability to score on the message body, basically giving the opportunity to score on technical mistakes like wrong signature seperator or long attribution line in some way. Probably hard to implement, but that would turn Knode into a fantastic newsreader (being a great one already) ;-)
Possible things RegExp on any header could allow: * Lower the of anything crossposted to more then 5 groups * Lower the score of anything posted to comp.os.linux.advocacy and any group with "xp" or "windows" in the name. * Lower the score of anything posted to a group with a high proportion of trolls from Google Groups with a Yahoo.com or Hotmail.com email address.
Responding to email: Subject: Please review your entries at bugs.kde.org to help us Date: 11 May 2004 06:06:40 -0000 Feature still missing from KNode 0.7.7, KDE 3.2.1. Although I note that "Lower the score of anything posted to a group with a high proportion of trolls from Google Groups with a Yahoo.com or Hotmail.com email address." is possible to achieve with the current interface. (The other use cases I suggested can't)

Unfortunatly this is not as easy as it sounds, when listing available articles the server needs only to send Subject, From, Date, Message-ID, Lines and References headers. If you want scoring on additional headers, that would require to download the whole article (same of course for the "scoring on body" wish) and that is something you surely don't want to have, esp. on slow internet connections. However, a NNTP server might send optinally additional headers during the article listing, I'll see if we can at least support those.

CVS commit by vkrause: Add support for the 'LIST OVERVIEW.FMT' NNTP command. If the server provides more than the mandatory headers during a XOVER command, KNode will now evaluate and save them. So it will be possible to add scoring rules for these headers. I tested this with a few diffrent servers, all of them provided at least the Xref header, so scoring on cross-posts (as requested multiple times) should be possible.

Whether it is "filter body" or just headers, I want to be able to filter out all cross-posts. The easiest way to do this is to look for comas in the Newsgroup-headers. This used to work for me with knews (no relation to KDE). Thanks!
I'd really like to see a feature to score anzthing down that has more than x crossposted groups.
Noted that distant servers over low bandwidth links don't send all headers when listing. However, many people browse on high bandwidth links or run local news servers (e.g. leafnode). It should at least be made an option to be able to score/filter on all headers and on content, because, for example, cross-posting correlates very highly with trolling.
Feature still missing in KNode 0.9.1 (KDE 3.4.1, Gentoo) *Want* to sort out crossposted messages, even if that is only possible after downloading the message itself.
Maybe this bug is interesting too: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56510 and maybe even this one: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138910
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
