Hello alt.support.cancer readers
Filtering Posts
Some of you have excellent filtering skills and/or newsreaders so/and can
automatically delete the PITAs who are posting from Taiwan. How you know
is their email address ends with tw
such as this apollo0661111@yahoo.com.tw
I know some of the rest of you have shortcuts to "block" each poster (or
line), one by one.
There may be a way, in your newsreader, to "mass" delete their posts.
There is in mine.
I create a rule, where sender (of the message)
The next selection has 4 choices (contains, is, starts with, ends with,}
So I select Sender, ends with @yahoo.com.tw
I think I also saw one that posts with yahoo se (which I think is Sweden)
Do the same with that one.
So I select Sender, ends with @yahoo.com.se
There's also been a bunch from China jeckychai@yahoo.com.cn (an example)
So I select Sender, ends with @yahoo.com.cn
If this works for you, you mass delete these newsgroups pests.
A risk is that someone valid comes along, from that country, using Yahoo,
that might get wiped out.
Not to worry, there's a few of us who will not be mass deleting, so we can
reply to that post, if it warrants it.
So take some time, in your newsreader to see if it can be done, the way I
am explaining here.
And..one of the biggest glitches is that people type the info in (and
sometimes type it wrong, and then the filter does not work). So copy and
paste the @yahoo.com.tw (into its appropriate location).
Good luck. We can beat them at their game. :)
