Sadly, sometimes it's about signal:noise ratio, plain and simple.
If google would respond to abuse complaints (like they _used to_),
in a useful way, that'd be different.

By the way, Paul, if you want an account on a box you can log in to
to get to news.individual.net, drop me an email and I'll get you going.

Sorry about the garble. Should have read
14 Jan 2005
Due to persistent troll attacks through Google Groups, and Google's persistent
refusal to do ANYthing about it despite repeated complaints, Google has been
added to the list of blocked domains that permit or ignore abuse. Posts to
rec.woodworking which originate at googlegroups.com, and all followups, are
dropped.

Thanks for the offer, Dave, but at this time I don't need to. My ISP
uses Giga news which, outside of a couple of small issues, is actually
quite good. A part of the time the only software available to me is a
browser and I am forced to use Google Groups.
PK
you're an idiot.

I picked it up just to see if I could apply any of it to my XNews score
file. I find I have to apply each filter separately but with a little bit
of tweaking they work just fine. Thanks Doug. My head hurts when I try to
work with regexpressions. Pasting somebody else's is a lot more fun. :-)

There isn't a lot of tweaking to do to convert these to Xnews.
Thanks, Doug. No matter what the twits say about you.
Patriarch,
who is working out the Xnews settings on a new computer, and not
remembering all that well what he did for the old, now departed one...
