Re: Xnews - Kill Articles Crossposted To More Than



Reality folded in on itself, and somewhere the following words from
"NEM" appeared in history:

Can someone explain why the original was killed, but not the
replies?

The crossposts were striped from some replies?
Quite possable, it does happen...

DO you have a refrence we could double-check?

<snip>
So, all conditions have been satisfied accordingly.

Xnews' built in Xpost filter only kills/hides those articles that
are acualy xposted, not the entire thread. If you want to kill off
the thread either use a SUBJECT keyword score file entry (reactive)
or an entry based on the REFRENCES header using something unique
from the root post's MID (agressive/active).
