- This did a nice job of creating the KILL file, but editing
- the file $HOME/News/sci/energy/KILL to change it to:
-
- /Cameron Randale Bass/h:j
-
- was much more effective ( the 'h' says just search the header, where the
- 'a' in Cameron's suggestion searched the whole body of the postings. Very
- inefficient...)
-
- Also, Cameron left out the 'j' in his command, which is critical since
- does the junking ... I'm sure it was just an oversight ...
-
- But the 'K' was what I needed. It creates the KILL file and gets it
- ready to use.
-
- /dale bass/a:j
-
- would also work, but would kill all articles with that search string
- at any place in the article, without reguard for poster.
-
- I've also put in
-
- /crb7q@kelvin.seas.Virginia.EDU/h:j
-
- just to be on the safe side ...
