Just out of curiosity, Janet. Or anyone else, for that matter. What
criteria do you use to dump these?

They're not X-posted, have random subject headers, don't have a common
author and I'm slightly reluctant to kill based on the number of lines
(many are as low as 75, and some even down to 50 - which would mean
losing regular posts).



I go to the bottom of them, select all, scanning quickly every title in
case a short proper message is there, then just remove. Easy with
Turnpike.


Indeed. I was just hoping there was a way of avoiding downloading them.
[Besides switching news supplier.]

I've just asked in the TP newsgroup and there isn't really a catch-all
based on the headers available. Aside from utilising the
"/^X\-Complaints\-To: /h"


Using this email address just gets rejected.
