If you use procmail, you can use the following entry to support
cypherpunks-specific killfile:
:0
* ^(Sender|From): [email protected]
{
:0 BHc:
* !? fgrep -q -i -f $HOME/.procmail/killfile.cpunks
$MAILDIR/crypto.noflames
.. some more irrelevant recipes ..
}
Then create ~/.procmail and edit file $HOME/.procmail/killfile.cpunks.
Put there something like
[email protected]
freedom-knights
someone@else
and so on. This recipe will trash everything with the specified
addresses mentioned in headers and bodies of incoming cypherpunks
articles. I experimented with this recipe at the height of the f-k
vs. cypherpunks flamewar. It reduced the traffic in half and what
remained was much more useful.
