Quoted from the mutt manual:

|  3.22.  Message Scoring
|
|  Usage: score pattern value
|  Usage: unscore pattern [ pattern ... ]
|
|  The score commands adds value to a message's score if pattern matches
|  it.  pattern is a string in the format described in the ``patterns''
|  section (note: For efficiency reasons, patterns which scan information
|  not available in the index, such as ~b, ~B or ~h, may not be used).

This will explain your problems, i think.

greets,
