Is it capable of doing that? I really don't know, I haven't used it. I would assume it has some kind of 'kill this post and all follow ups' option though? -- Woody www.alienrat.com

In 1.x and 2.0 it just has a "Mark thread as Read" option. In a version being beta tested you can kill by reference to a message ID. The same beta test version does scoring, but it isn't clear how you'd do scoring in practice. Any scoring afficionados around who could offer suggestions? -- Chris

He is obsessed with me, for years he has told everyone how I am in his killfile, but he is far to obsessed to ever put anyone in a killfile:-) > I know he likes me because he's never said a bad word to me.

Yes, he is very entertaining. -- "Telling someone to kill themselves is not harmful: it's merely me expressing an opinion. You try to drive people to suicide - that's evil.
