Why don't we all start our posts with an X and see if it will help keep the
real ones separated from the junk? Otherwise I'm open to suggestions.

Another one could be [gardening] in the subject header. I use a filter
to extract my incoming emails from one of the Yahoo groups into a
specifically named folder.

Unfortunately the idiot who posts this rubbish also reads some of the
articles on this newsgroup, so (s)he has adopted the use of these symbols in
the subject!

It looks like this current crop (sorry!) has a consistency about it.

From:
Subject: jimmie, have a pathetic smog. You won't care it
NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.136.10.82

Fo:
Subject: courtney, have a dry jar. You won't play it
NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.136.10.82


That will change when they get booted off their ISP but for each block
that crops up the number will be the same for that block.

A chopping off of one hand should be sufficient for annoyances like this!

Maybe Sharia law wouldn't be so bad after all.

"53ab2750" is the common factor in the headers

I wonder if an ASBO might be arranged...
