Specialised newsreading software allows you to handle the data you get
very easily. For example, with 'Agent' I can selectively stop
particular authors or posts with particular words in the subject line
appearing at all, or mark them read, or even 'ignore thread'
altogether. This allows me to cut out those posts/threads that I know
for sure are not of interest to me (or raise the blood pressure too
much!). I also don't have to download the whole post unless I choose
to, important on a slow dial-up.

err, I do all those with OE express.

Ahh, but can you read mailing lists threaded like a newsgroup with
automagic expiry of articles if required?

?why do Americans chatter during West End Theatre performances?


AUTOMAGIC EXPIRY - there's a facility to contemplate!

(Sounds like an automated disaster about to happen)

PS - Don't complain about Americans or they will invade your country.
