	You appear to be posting from Google Groups... No kill file capability
there as I understand it...

	Use a real NNTP client and Usenet server and it should be easy to set a
kill filter...

He’s been away for a while so I think he’s just got out of the hospital.

It’s not just him though.

Emacs GNUS here. I'd like to be able to have it completely ignore pests
who I've killfiled, rather than tell me I have 2 new messages which turn
out both to be from $pest.

Hey, I might resemble that remark. ;^)

Luke, I know you find my paragraphs (“walls of text” as you call them) annoying, but I really think that you should read my GNAT GPL Community Edition versus FSF comment that I just posted on the How to get Ada to cross the chasm? thread.  I think that you will find that interpretation fascinating (dare I say, Earth-shattering?) regarding any file in GNAT GPL Community Edition that has Copyright Free Software Foundation instead of Copyright AdaCore, Inc in it.

Killfile is difficult, because he keeps changing his name. He also posts
in numerous inappropriate newsgroups.
