Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / March 2007free/cheap mac newsreader which kills references
I use macsoup, which doesn't appear able to killfile according to references- e.g. so that a thread started by a particular poster would be completely ignored. (Can it?) Any ideas for another one? I don't read binary newsgroups.

(Can it?) It has "Auto-Kill Thread" and "Auto-Kill Sub-Thread" commands, which can be used manually to prevent you seeing all aritcles in a particular thread or all followups to a particular posting. It doesn't appear to be able to set up a kill file entry which matches part of the Reference header, but it can match on other headers and your kill file entry can be "Auto-Kill". This would have the effect of ignoring all threads started by a particular person, as long as you can find something consistent and unique in other headers (which MacSoup will look at).

Many thanks for the quick reply. I'd not explored auto-kill at all, and that's perfect for what I want. Thanks again.
