Easier still to filter. Just set you filter to killfile anything
crossposted to 3 or more newsgroups. I never see then unless someone
responds and removes all the other newsgroups.


How would that help much? You'd still see all these replies to the
original.


No - you only see the replies that people make to the thread where they have
("helpfully") removed all the other groups involved in the cross post.

I've just d'/l'd and set up NewsProxy as described in the FAQ.

Works a treat. Would heartily recommend it.

cheers
Richard
