Configuring WMail to block certain senders when viewing n/g

[James David Byrne]

Is it possible to configure Windows Mail so that, when viewing a newsgroup,
certain sender's posts are omitted? I want to filter out the considerable
volume of garbage posted e.g. to this n/g by a few subscribers. TIA James

Right click on the message and choose the "Junk" selection then you have
the choice you want.

Opps, sorry about my last message. It may work with Windows Mail but I
was looking at Windows - LIVE - Mail (Beta). You may want to give it a try
anyway. I like it far better for my use.

The released version of WLM is out by the way.

Select the message in the list then
Message menu > Junk EMail > Add sender/domain to blocked list.
Although it says e-mail it works for posts.
Its a facility I never used until I started frequenting this group but
now I have quite a long blocked list although many are aliases so to
speak.

Thanks. I got it just after I wrote that message and I am not using it.
I had been hunting around for it for the last few days and just stumbled on
it today.
