Can you do that in slrn?

Yes. I've never tried it but I think you can use a Pan Score file with
slrn.

You can score based on anything in the header, perhaps using regex as well.

    Like the previous answer you have two choices: to use the ``Xref'' line
    (preferred) or the ``Newsgroups'' line. The first choice uses the fact that
    a cross-posted article will have two colons in the ``Xref'' header field.
    So, use a score of the form:

            Score: -9999
            Xref: :.*:

    However, you may want to tolerate cross-posts if a ``Followup-To'' header
    line is set. The following rule scores articles that are cross-posted into
    many groups (e.g. more than 2) and have no ``Followup-To'' line (note that
    this rule is ``expensive'', as usually neither ``Newsgroups'' nor
    ``Followup-To'' are included in the NOV data).

Ah right, I keep forgetting you can do that ^^" I should stop
procrastinating on that
