Cant find a way to nuke 'yenc-pp-a&a'

[lurky]

not sure why all the posts from 'yenc' have managed to get past micro server,, but that is not my
problem.

i want to be able to put him/her in my nuke list via o/e but cant find a way to nominate this
server. i have many names from many other groups that i have successfully 'filtered out', but
those groups are on my isp's server, so how do i set up o/e to delete the yenc persons posts?

Highlight one of the posts, click on Message, Block Sender. Or create a rule
(Tools, Message Rules, News) to delete and mark as read anything from
'yenc'.

That will work. All Yenc has to do is change his/her screen name, and post
more again.

There should be a person monitoring this public newsgroup at the server.
This person should be removing all these posts soon, that is, if he is doing
his job.

Now that's funny

Now that's funny

No kidding, someone obviously doesn't understand how an UNMODERATED
newsgroup works!

Tis the problem with Outlook Express: can't test on many headers. With
other newsreaders, you could test on the Message-ID field. In 40tude
Dialog, and using regex, for example:

Message-ID {<[email protected]>}

That would hide, delete or whatever action you select, anything from
that NNTP server. Luckily I'm using Motzarella to read the microsoft.*
groups which has some filtering. Apparently Microsoft's filtering got
disabled or it sucks. I was playing around today with diffferent
servers (because I added Albasani) to see how fast each was. I polled
this group using Motzaralle, Albasani, and Microsoft NNTP server. I
only see the Yenc flood when using Microsoft's NNTP server.

You could report the flood to http://www.smsusenet.nl/ by one of their
users. Don't know what language they used. Set Google Translate to
auto-detect on their Support page and got:

http://translate.google.com/transla...l/?page=support&sl=auto&tl=en&history_state0=

Doesn't look like they want anyone reporting abuse to them directly.
Their link to their forum(s) doesn't work (to read any sticky posts
about support/abuse contacts). Okay, that means I won't accept any
posts from them.

You could try sending an abuse report to the contact e-mail addresses
listed in their domain registration (http://www.domain-registry.nl using
their WhoIs and then checking the Extended option to see the info):

Administrative contact: (e-mail address removed)
Technical contact: (e-mail address removed)

Good luck. Probably would have more impact if an MS rep who admins
their NNTP server contacted SMSusenet to tell them that they will block
all posts from SMSusenet until they fix their flood problems. I'm
sticking with Motz (or Alba) for now. Microsoft needs to fix their
flood filter (and possible restrict posts over 20K in size).

Using Outlook Express the best I can so far devise is a News Message
Rule deleting them after they have downloaded.

Where the Subject Line has "exe (1/1)" without quotes.

Action Delete it

Action Stop Processing more Rules.

That does not stop downloading and you still have to empty the Deleted
Items folder.

My preferred method is to stop the download, select the messages and
Shift+Delete to remove the messages.

You should not open the messages as they contain malware per David
Lipman when this spam avalanche occured previously.

Hope this helps.

They only contain malware if your mail reader automatically decodes
encoded files. Yay for Thunderbird, it just looks like a post full of
garbage here.

I was primarily cautioning against opening any of these messages. You
can read messages in Outlook Express through Properties, Details tab and
Message Source free of risk. That is how I was able to devise the News
Message Rule. The message rule I created has worked better than I
expected. A large batch has just been deleted without the messages being
moved to the Deleted Items folder.

From your headers: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106

I'd be more concerned about getting WinXP SP2 fully patched, if I were you.

The best way is to use Agent newsreader 4 and above. Right click a
yenc-pp post and apply kill filter --they will disappear forever.

Well, you're catching up. Only 6 months behind this time. However, the OP
