Here's what I've done that works real good:
At to top of the screen click on Tools, options,
display, tags, add, clean list, click on the box to
the right, and tag it black, ok, add, trash list,
click on the box to the right, and tag it pale
green, ok, ok.
While viewing rec.aquaria.marine.reefs, click on
Tools, Message Filters, Make sure it says, filters
for rec.aquaria.marine.reefs. Click new, create
filter name "clean list", match any of the
following, from, contains. Add a regular user, then
click "+", and do it again with the other regular
users. Then perform these actions, Tag message,
Clean list, ok. Click new, create filter name "trash
list", match all of the following, perform these
actions, tag message, trash list, ok, then close window.
And I also created a troll list.

OK think I have the idea...is there a way to run it on past messages, or
will it only work on future messages that come in?

First download and burn a DVD for linux, then install linux which will,
with a single application, bring the virus load of your computer down to
zero, then install thunderbird. After getting thunderbird setup with
your news server, From the menu, use tools, message filters.
Sorry, I couldn't resist. :-)

But I hope you know why there are not many viruses for linux...
Not that the system does not allow it - it is simply not popular
and virus does not have enough host bodies to be pandemic ;-)
p.s. How can you bring the number of viruses to zero if this is zero already?

When you add people to your lists, be very specific about your info. Given the
situation we're seeing right now, you wouldn't want to add "KurtG" to a killfile
or clean list; you would want to get more specific on the address.
One thing I think is a defect in T-bird is that there is no way to set up a
killfile based on the path. It would be great if we could block stuff from a
particular computer without depending on stuff the troll enters.

I like pc better than Apple, but those commercials
are funny making fun of Microsoft and their buggy
software. But the more they advertise being virus
free, the more likely hackers are going to start
targeting Apple just for the fun of it.

Yea Hamster gives added flexibility. Since it was

This new tagging setup on Thunderbird is working
very well. Here is a little bit more info on the
tagging setup.
In order to control tagging color priorities, go to
tools, options, advanced, config editor, type in
"tags", and you will see that it uses $label as it's
default naming, and then gives it a value, and if
you create a label, it uses that name, and gives it
the same value, and if you rename it, it has the
original name and gives it the new value.
It puts the tags in color priority by using the
alphabetical order of the original names.
So what I did was to go to tools, options, display,
new, and created the following tags:
$label6
$label7
$label8
$label9
$label91
$label92
$label93
$label94
$label95
$label96
$label97
$label98
$label99
Only I just now realized that I goofed up and
spelled it "$lable". :-) But it still worked.
Then click ok to close out the settings window.
Then go back to tools, options, display, and edit
the first one ($label6), and rename it to the tag
that you want to take color priority. I named it
"Troll List", then I renamed the second one, "Clean
List", and then renamed the 3rd one "Trash List.
That way the color priority is in that order.
Then for the filters, I run them in the same order,
Troll List, Clean List, Trash List, so that they tag
in that order as well.

just keeps showing the default 2. i also tried to add a smtp server
with the info on it too, and configured t-bird to use that for
outgoing, guess that wasn't going to help. i closed the prog down,
that didnt help, i looked everywhere for a place to put a password but
t-bird usually just prompts for it. could i be putting in something
wrong in the email location, in the server settings, or do i just need
to wait for some time? wierd..

ok, it was my bad, i had my t-bird address book opened the whole time,
so no matter how many times i closed down t-bird, it didnt have time
to initiate the authenticate. once i shut down my address book, and
repopened t-bird, viola, it prompted me for the username then the
password.

Oh, I should admit that windows has gotten much better. I still think
the user interface stinks, but the quality and security has improved
dramatically. It still boggles the mind why something as simple as a
firewall was so difficult for MS to add into their systems and would
have saved businesses world-wide billions of dollars.
I think my impressions were formed a few years ago where I'd be working
happily on my Linux laptop while the latest MS security gaff was being
exploited by internet worms. I also refused to support the platform
because I didn't enjoy being woken up at 2 in the morning to figure out
why a Windows server is circling the drain again. Just
self-preservation and self-interest at work, so I suppose that is
distorted as their are other ways to view the utility of the platform.
Although I commend MS for fixing their issues, I still don't trust the
machines. If it has windows and is attached to the internet, I assume
the machine is dirty. MS software hasn't been scrutinized by the world
of developers, so I just have to assume that their are more security
gaffs waiting to be exploited. Perhaps I'm overly cautious, but then
again, judging by past performance, maybe not.
As for the User interface, I feel like I'm riding around on a squeaky
tricycle with my knees up around my ears. I've only recently (last
night) started using Vista, so the jury is out on that one. Nice eye
candy, but I'm more concerned about productivity and performance.
I've never owned an Apple as I'm always turned away by sticker shock and
that they reorganized the unix file system. I can't make any comments
on them other then they have some nice eye candy on their UI. Not sure
how useful it is, but some of my friends seem to enjoy it.
Sorry, for posting off topic. I'll let it die.

Here's how to get it working:
Tools -> Account Settings -> Server Settings
Always request authentication when connecting to
this server
Next line down, click on browse.
Right click on news.server address and open with
notepad.
At the bottom of the file ad 3 lines of gobly-goop,
and save and close
the file
This will then cause Thunderbird to ask for a
correct screen name and
password to replace the gobly-goop.
