Jay, I don't use a mouse when reading csa2, but I use trn on a unix box.
I find that turning off the thread selector (=), then /cotse.com/f:J
does a lot to help csa2.  Sometimes it seems worse and I /cotse.com/a:J
to get rid of the posts and the responses.  That pares csa2 down to about
a half-dozen messages a day.  Livable.  What is the cliche?  "Different
strokes for different folks".  We all accomplish to same goal of pest
eradication. ;-)  Many use the 'kill file' method.  (No violence
intended.)

I am glad that you are avoiding the Anon/Penman/Quantum/whoever posts from
cotse.com too.  If enough people ignore the posts and complain to
abuse@cotse.com then perhaps csa2 can return to full functionality.

Have a nice day!
