Though not, of course, when they weren't x-posted as the 2000+ in the
last couple of day weren't.

I wondered why the wreaking effort on uly had been light recently. The
wreckers are clearly running out of manpower :-)

Clearly they can not make more than one newsgroup unusable at any one time.
without x-posting.

I have Agent set to mark a post "read" after it has been displayed for *1*
second, and work *without* a killfile. I keep an eye on the thread
Subject and sender. I just hold the down button depressed so that the
garbage gets marked read at very fast rate. Only the interesting posts
get actually read. This also works well for reasonable posts which I am
not interested in.
