Anyone know how to put a user on ignore using Thunderbird newsgroup
client? By ignore, I mean not see their replies, posts, etc.
similar to
how it was done with Outlook Express.

Thanks


Personally I never killfile anyone but I've told a number of anti free
speech types and netcops to please killfile me. I'm using Thunderbird
24.2.0 and if you tell me which poster you wish to filter, I would be
glad to tell you the steps to take, even if you wished to filter out
me.

I kill-filed the loon that harasses you but when you respond to him I
see the responses. How can I k-f your responses without k-f'ing you?


Messing with T-B, I see there is an ignore thread option that can also
be added.


You can simply press "k" when you're in a thread and it will kill that
thread. I do that whenever I see a spammer, Arabic or other non English
writing. Try pressing "k" when you are on a thread that bothers you. ^_^

Do that all the time but k-f'ing the thread should do what I want.
I'm sure if loon gets no response, he'll munge his address.
These folks thrive on responses, positive or negative.


Killer Loon is a well know nymshifter who has already changed its nym in
another group. If it sees it getting no response from one nym because
it's been killfiled, it changes its nym again to spew more calumny. ^_^
