Don't know but its amazing how much time and energy they waste trying to
annoy people. If you come up with a solution let us know. I am reluctant to
spend money on software for something as trivial as a newsreader - but it
looks as if I may have to!

40Tude Dialog is free, from http://www.40tude.com/dialog/, and I'm
pretty sure that it allows you to filter out any posts crossposted to
more than a certain number of newsgroups. Another good, free,
newsreader is Gravity, which you can get from
http://mpgravity.sourceforge.net/. It's some time since I've used
it, so I can't remember whether it has that specific function but it
certainly does most things pretty well.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I've just downloaded MicroPlanet Gravity newsreader. It is free and very
good. Highly customisable. It can be set to skip crossposted articles -
brilliant for getting rid of all the crap!!!
