Here's what I did: It kills his postings, and any responses to them. You
could set up the same thing for any subject line you want.

For some reason, some of his posts still show up. When I refresh (F5)
they're gone.

Originaly posted 2/1/07:

I found the following completely eliminates mxsmanic from usenet, along
with
any responses to him. Using this, I don't need to killfile anyone else.
Only
responses to polluted threads are gone.

Tools - Message Rules - News - - New:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the From line contains 'mxsmanic'
Mark the message as ignored

View - Current View - Customize Current View:

View - Current View - Hide Read or Ignored Messages
View - Current View - Customize Current View

Un-check 'Where the message has been read'

Change the name to 'Hide Ignored Messages'


View - Current View - Make Sure 'Hide Ignored Messages' is checked.

In what newsreader? Outlook?

Outlook Express. That's what the OP uses.

You may need to reset your files to redownload headers. Otherwise the older
threads won't be marked for ignore.
