I use Pan as well (for want of a better newsreader). There are some strange things missing, or at least hidden. How do you expire old articles? How do you killfile someone? The manual doesn't seem to say.
Killfile is per group. Right click on one of their posts, then 'Ignore Author'. Selecte 'Forever'.
You fiddle with article/author scores. The default "Header view" excludes anything with a score of -9999
For expiring, this is per news server. So:
Edit -> Edit News Servers -> select server -> Edit
and it's therender Settings.
I *think* that's filtering, rather than expiring.
It's about the same in thunderbird, but surely it's normal to group related functions together? Isn't there a keyboard shortcut you can use?
Wait ... what moron put the J key (mark as junk) next to the K key (ignore thread) on the keyboard?
Doesn't everyone use these ? I know I do :-)
