Please kill the HTML on this list. pan doesn't do HTML for a reason.
While HTML is fine on the web in a browser, it's a security nightmare
abused by malware authors and spammers worldwide in news and mail. Even if
you don't agree with that as you obviously don't if you are
posting the junk, the least you can do is honor it on the pan lists.
As Peter mentioned, scoring has superseded the filters, as it's generally
more flexible anyway.
Rules per se are gone. Charles has indicated he's planning on instituting
something a bit simpler to work with for handling auto-delete on killed
posts, auto-mark-read on negative scored posts, and auto-download on
watched posts, and there's already a config option for expiring stuff
after a period. Those were what people seemed to use the rules for.
