You are very kind. Thank you!

Cowardice? Try belligerence, selfishness, and stupidity.

He's the consumate ass-hole of the group, but at least he gives us his
first name and does use faked headers to conflate himself with the #2
group bozo.

(Remember what Steve did just with the first name of someone's gardiner.)

Jill is very helpful!

In Thunderbird, I think you have to add the feature with the

Message-ID: @aioe.com

(sorry, I block them and that may not be exact since I can't see them
now).

Once I triggered that, it made me try adding that same to Xananews and
it worked. Xananews is free and does almost everything Thunderbird
does. It's also simpler to setup and a whole lot better for blocking
individual accounts quickly. Xananews is also proactive if set so.
That means it doesn't even download the offending messages (other
setting it does, but marks them as spam right away so easier to skip).

I forget what options it doesn't have in Xananews, but recall it's
stuff I don't care about.

It's not difficult, just takes a little getting used to. You can always
edit or delete filters you've created.

I'd filter out posts that contain: goblin.stu.neva.ru!
Unfortunately, Google won't allow that. That's the breaks.
