Ditto those "commandments." Filtering on a whole domain _might_
be fine if you are willing to put up with the reasonable
posters but filtering on keywords has reaped me a bounty of
unmissed trash. Fer example: Synced up my 'groups and rfc had
125 new posts this morning. With my current filters grinding
away, I popped in to see 43 posts. I'm crushed I missed 82
messages touting wholesale watches for cheap designer purses
and jordon nike shoes for sex with jesus and mohamed earning
money and gold in china.

YMMV,
