My conclusion is that slrnpull has some kind of simplified scoring

the two in terms of scoring.

long time since i used slrnpull the last time, but that shouldn't be the
case. i had a symlink to slrn's score file as slrnpull's, not to write
rules twice.

there might be a bug or a non-alignment on the two programs (if i have
to guess, i'd say encoding(?))

or

score file acts on headers not offered by the remote newsserver on
XOVER, thus slrnpull isn't able to filter, while slrn locally does
