Is there an easy way to killfile a block of messages in one go OE6, if
you
see what I mean?


Only by marking the first one, scrolling down to the last one, press caps
key and mark the last one, which should select all of them, then ALT E/K.


That will get rid of them all, the only problem is that one of the usual
subscribers may have posted a messag halfway through, in which case that
one
gets deleted as well!

Regardless of that. Not responding to crossposted threads without
first trimming them, would be a help. When someone is maybe
inadvertantly crossposting into alt.troll, never mind crossposting
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
to other maybe innocuous looking NewsGroups, where in fact the trolls
may have already got the upper hand - it's fairly obvious what the
possible consequences may be. You're just making their life easier
as it enables trolls to identify those NewsGroups which are currently
under attack.
