I wish to kill file a specific poster on u.d-i-y. I cannot find his
email address, how can I do it please? I do now particularly wish to
name the individual as I am sure he will flame me.


Right click on the "From" field at the top of the headers and then use
"Create Filter From"

It may be that they post through some anonymiser or with a forged From
address in which case you may have to accept some collateral damage.


Surely a dab of "AI", and the OP could have a trained filter that's as
good as human doing the job ?


How is the AI supposed to guess which posters offend the OP?

Or shall I add that to the growing list of things that "AI" *can't* do ?


AI can do lots of things but mind reading isn't one of them.
