7.11 Reverse Scoring ==================== If you want to keep just articles that have ‘Sex with Emacs’ in the subject header, and expunge all other articles, you could put something like this in your score file: (("subject" ("Sex with Emacs" 2)) (mark 1) (expunge 1)) So, you raise all articles that match ‘Sex with Emacs’ and mark the rest as read, and expunge them to boot.
