For mail messages, OE can filter based on words contained in the message
body, but only for mail, not news messages. That would be handy assuming
nobody had edited out the offending party's name. I keep meaning to hunt
around for something better, but the way OE displays watched and
unwatched
threads is damned near perfect, as far as I'm concerned. And, I want a
program that handles both email and newsgroups, and can monitor multiple
email addresses without having to set up different user profiles. So,

Have I mentioned 40tude Dialog? Yes - I think I have ;-) One of
the best features is that any threads that you've contributed to
can be automatically watched, and any responses to your posts can
be automatically highlighted in another color.

It also allows multiple identities and servers for mail and
newsgroups.

It's tough moving to a new newsreader and/or mail client but once
you bear with it for a day or three, you realize how much a great
investment it was to switch. Most people just don't want to
invest the time and are stuck in their ways.

Thanks. I'll check it out as soon as their web site gets over whatever
issues it's having at the moment.

If there's a single person on this ng who knows about alternate
personas and multiple addresses, it's sw. He's always circumventing
kill files.
