Killfile & 2qwk!



 Nathan@cco.Caltech.Edu let the beans talk:

     | before you see them. But, you're using some '2qwk' piece of
     | software that looks BBS-ish, and you think that like a moderated
     | BBS, idiots can be eliminated. I'd recommend trying to see if
     | your software can ignore posts from certain idiots, and if that
     | isn't possible, to upgrade your software to something more
     | powerful.

2qwk! 1.24 and higher has killfile capacity; when facing a message from
someone you don't wanna hear from, hit K.  As I said in the 2qwk! docs,
this will let you not see posts from twits but you can still view the
return flames.  [Thus it's only reading the From: line, not the To:.]

Upgrading your software to something more powerful isn't possible.  <bg>
Only to a newer version of 2qwk!, if you're on an 8-bit machine; the GS
user has more s/w options (few as good as 2qwk! though, hehehehe).
