If any of you are using NewsProxy to filter newsgroup postings, add this line to your nfilter.dat

alt.home.repair drop NNTP-Posting-Host:
uPgK13HseOvGgdY6dNb/Qg.user.speranza.aioe.org

Notes:
1. make sure it's all on one line
2. works only if your newsserver passes the NNTP-Posting-Host header to your client (some
don't)

Thank's Doug.

I'll have to try that.

I'm just using Internet Explorer 8.0 on a dial-up connection, so is there anything I can do to get rid of the continuous mormon bashing and daily updates of where the USA currently is in it's inexorable slide down the huge cosmic toilet bowl. It gets tiring.

Any idea how I'd get that line into XNews?

XNews' Help mentions using the NNTP-Posting-Host header for killfiling, but
then XNews gives you no way to actually enter that line directly into its
Score file or through its dialog box front-end for the Score file. When I
enter the line manually the way I've done all the rest of my killfiling, it
does not work.

First, download a real newsreader such as XNews or Agent. Then download a copy of
NewsProxy, and you'll be able to filter anything you want.

I like to laugh at him then shake my head with wonderment and pity thinking
about the pathetic idiots like him we live amongst.

I telnetted into my provider to see if they support XHDR, and they do. Or
at least it's mentioned in the command list when I type "help".

So I added these lines to my score file:

[^alt.home.repair$]
Sco: -9999
NNTP-Posting-Host: uPgK13HseOvGgdY6dNb/Qg.user.speranza.aioe.org

But I must be doing something wrong, because it doesn't work.
