There are basically three ways of setting up rules which assign
the scoring-value to messages. The first and easiest way is to set
To take @code{gnus-del-mark} as an example---this alist says that all
articles that have that mark (i.e., are marked with @samp{e}) will have a
-score entry added to lower based on the @code{From} header by -4, and
-lowered by @code{Subject} by -1. Change this to fit your prejudices.

If you have marked 10 articles with the same subject with
