That's what I figured. As I said, with XanaNews the "bozo bin" and the
filter list are separate. The actual killfile is pretty simple, it's a
one-click deal that kills any messages from a particular email.
Effective most of the time, but not with those that morph their
addresses.

There is also the filter list, with options to filter by Subject, From,
Body, Date, Lines, Header, Crossposts, with options for Matches,
Doesn't Match, etc. That's for when you need more power.

I like the option to filter by the actual crossposted newsgroup name
rather than just number of crossposted groups. Most of the Chung groups
I don't care about.
