Of course, such a rule would kill this thread. :-) And every other thread,
too, since he posts in them all.

If it will make you feel better, read "The Seven Levels of Aviation." You
know what level HE is, heh-heh.

I don't fully understand Steve's method, but I followed the instructions for
using O.E. and see this thread, but have not seen him or any responses to
him. I think it just blocks branches of a thread.

Here it is again:

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.
