Yes, but I was attending the Linux Security Summit last week, so my attention was all over the place. We do use boost values there. Looking at that particular message, it was sent to regressions and linux-wireless, which have different boost values: [publicinbox "regressions"] address = regressi...@lists.linux.dev url = regressions inboxdir = /srv/public-inbox/lore.kernel.org/regressions indexlevel = full newsgroup = dev.linux.lists.regressions boost = 11 listid = regressions.lists.linux.dev [publicinbox "linux-wireless"] address = linux-wirel...@vger.kernel.org url = linux-wireless inboxdir = /srv/public-inbox/lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless indexlevel = full newsgroup = org.kernel.vger.linux-wireless boost = 10 listid = linux-wireless.vger.kernel.org we give lists.linux.dev a higher boost value because we populate it straight from watched mlmmj archive dirs and it's more likely to have "truest" headers. -K
