Nat ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message delineator ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Kyle: >Does anyone know of a Newsgroup viewer program that allows you to block >all posts by a certain name or email address so you don't see them. I >am not sure if there is such thing. There certainly is! Its' called "Agent" - I'm using it now. With it you can set internal filters to watch all sorts of e-mail or newsgroup parameters. I like it for a lot of reasons: 1. All e-mail and newsgroup reading and composing can be done off-line. 2. Rather than wasting time downloading ALL newsgroup messages, I can DL just the headers (titles) and select the ones I want to read. 3. The filters I mentioned can be set many ways; by authors, titles, and content. etc. You can check it out at: http://www.forteinc.com/agent/ They also have "Free Agent" which can be downloaded, but I strongly recommend the paid version as it can do considerably more.
