I use Agent and that's what I do... there aren't many rfc posters, not
enough to bother with killfiling. I sometimes go through all posts
and use the Ctrl key to highlight all those I know aren't worth
wasting time on and delete them all in one fell swoop.
Often I only read the last post in a thread and it will have quoted
most all replies in that thread... far less time consuming than
reading each and every post separately. When I see a thread with say
ten posts and they're all or most from the same poster I delete the
thread unread... would be like reading a parrot's recording.
And by now I know which posters are not informative or even humorous.
