In February, and again last month, I posted instructions on how to kill
his threads, and any responses to them, using OE 6 news rules.

This filter for Outlook Express marks his postings as ignored, and
anythingvfrom that branch on in that thread.

He no longer exists on my computer (Except the posts *ABOUT* him)

My 2/1 post:

I found the following completely eliminates mxsmanic from usenet, along
withvany responses to him. Using this, Ivdon'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.
