Man! This guy is nothing if not persistent. I wonder if I can screen him
out by killing "lycos.com"?

See my signature...all for the same poster, got fed up with putting
individual names in my ever lengthening killfile rule.

No since his from line is not true. He is using a service www.altopia.com
which doesn't care that the jerk is doing what he is doing. He has used
gmail, hotmail, and many other from addresses which are all false.

Just delete them and you won't have to see them again, until he sends more.

All his posts contain "@4ax.com" in the message ID, no matter what posting

Won't that just filter posts of those using Forte Agent?

Why would it? Forte Agent is a news reader, not a posting host....the
message ID of the post you replied to doesn't contain any reference to which
news reader I posted it with....

(from the help file)

;Agent can generate three different formats:

;<md5>@4AX.COM

;<md5> is a globally-unique string, generated from random state on
;your PC and encoded using the MD5 algorithm. 4AX.COM is a domain
;name owned by Forte for exclusive use by Agent for the purpose of
;generating message-ids.
;This is the format recommended by Forte.

;<md5>@<server>

;<md5> is the same globally-unique string described above.
;<server> is the name of the nntp or smtp server to which the
;message is being posted. This format is available for users who
;prefer to have message-ids contain the name of the posting server
;rather than the Forte-owned 4AX.COM domain name.

;<date.tic>@<server>

;<date.tic> is a number generating by combining the current date
;and time and the Windows tick count. <server> is the name of the
;nntp or smtp server to which the message is being posted.
;This is the format used by previous versions of Agent. Forte
;recommends that this format no longer be used, since it is more
;likely to genereate non-unique ids.

;The following tables shows how the combination of GenerateId and
;<x>IdFormat control the message-idformat:

;In previous versions, GenerateId could have a value of 0 (false)
;or 1 (true). If an old copy of AGENT.INI has one
;of these two values, Agent ignores the new <x>IDFormat parameters,
;and generates Ids using the format specified in the first table

;below. As of version 1.6, the default value is 2, which tells
;Agent to use the new <x>IDFormat parameters instead,
;specified in the second table.


;GenerateId Format
;---------- ------
;0 Do not generate Ids
;1 Generate <md5>@4AX.COM
;2 Use the <x>IDFormat parameters

;<x>IDFormat Format (when GenerateId=2)
------------ --------------------------
;0 <md5>@4AX.COM
;1 <md5>@<server>
;2 Do not generate Ids
;3 <date.tic>@<server>

So it won't fiilter *all* Agent posts, but it will filter a good number
of them!

in case you are interested.
