All messages will be grouped, *and* highlighted. Now, (with Eudora 5, I
don't recall if Make Filter was present in some or all of the earlier
versions), you can:
Click on Special | Make Filter. Select:
the conditions (Incoming and Manual),
the radio button to filter based on Subject,
the action "Delete Message (Transfer to Trash)",
and then click the "Add Details" button at the bottom. This will open your
filter list, and allow you to drag/move this new filter *before* the filter
that moves your list email to your list folder (and presumably ends with a
"skip next" command).
Voila, a killed thread.
