Ah. Think I know who you mean, That guy cross posts
to a zillion groups and, despite apparently suffering
from fairly serious paranoia of some sort (poor guy)
is on the ball enough to keep changing his subject
string and uses random 'from' addresses so he is hard
to filter.
Try creating a custom filter that includes ALL of each
char of M I 5 in the Subject as 3 separate filter
lines. Then add a line that makes it mandatory that
the article has been crossposted to a minimum of say 5
groups. Then (This is in old Pan). Then create a
rule that deletes all articles (including incoming)
matched by the filter. Try it on subscribed groups
first.
It may work. Such a broad filter is a little
dangerous - you might lose some articles you didn't
mean to. I'll post again if I can discover an
improvement.
