If your newsreader handles regular expressions (regex) in its killfile
setup, set "if "newsgroup" contains" to:

([^,]+,){2,}

That will kill off any articles crossposted to 3 groups or more. Then
it's just a case of picking off the remaining couple of lunatics and
life is back to normal. I just checked the post nunbers for the past
couple of days: near 800, of which over 600 were crossposted garbage.

Dave.

Thanks for the tip. I just killfile every screen name that cross posts.
That clears out the trolls and the idiots that don't remove NGs before
they reply.

That should simulate posting to notepad pretty quick.
