all the trolls.

I sure wish OE had that kind of option, or that there was an EASY add on to
do it.

There are other/better newsreaders out there for Winblows then OE. I've
heard people say nice things about Forte, but haven't played with it.

Being a Unix guy, all I need to put in my killfile is:

# kill anything xposted to ada
/alt.disasters.aviation/HXref:j=
# kill anything xposted to more then five groups.
/.*:.*:.*:.*:.*/HXref:j=

All someone's opinion. In MY opinion, none of the other ones are as easy
and as logicaly laid outm, as OE.

And I do wish there was an option to do that, with OE.

Main OE page (Inbox)/Tools/Message Rules/News.../

Yep, I know how to do that, but there never seems to be a good word to go
with, without occasionally killing a thread you want to keep.

I mostly just hit " mark conversation read," and go on.

among my many criteria are kill if subject contains belfort, newgroups

****or xref contains rec.travel.air (or alt.disasters.aviation).****

Explain this, for use on OE, if you can, please?

I don't use OE.

Can you see the headers with OE?

But, obviously lacking the powerful kill filter feature that would make
reading this group a little more enjoyable.

Clever, but certainly this requires a lot of your free time.

Thank you for your effort, though.

Not much really. My answers were designed to continue the discussion - not
make a stand. Short, to the point. Sometimes a question, etc.

Switching my profile takes 30 seconds.

The real trick is remembering to switch identities back. :-)

I am impressed. A troll to the trolls.
