FWIW, when pan expires a score, it doesn't change the scorefile, so it 
simply expires it for that session.

Here, I used to semi-regularly clean out all the expired scores manually, 
but then I maintained my scorefile pretty much manually in any case, as 
that allowed for consolidation of scores and groups, keeping it both 
efficient and neat and clean. =:^)  Of course these days I'm only running 
pan on gmane, on the various lists as newsgroups that I follow there, and 
have very little need for scoring, so the scorefile pretty much just 
stays as it is.  I probably haven't touched it at all in well over a 
year...
