Will it?
TFM says:
3.22. Message Scoring
The score commands adds value to a message's score if pattern
matches it.
message, not thread. what is the pattern meaning " if this is in a
thread whose *first* message has score -10000, it must be -10000 too?
Unless you can score the parent message, and have a folder hook that
says "collaps and hide all threads whose first message has score lower
than X. Is this what you mean? How should that hook be?
Also, I also want to prevent mutt from saying "new message in mailbox
XYZ" if it belongs to an unwanted thread..
