comp.lang.python killfile rule

2017-06-22 Thread John Black
All, in case this is useful to anyone, this rule that tells my newsreader 
which posts to kill really cleans up the group.  I could not find a way 
to key off of anything in the header except keywords because the From 
keeps changing and I didn't want to overkill real posts.  I may have to 
add a thing or two to this over time, but right now, this seems to be 
nailing everything.

I'm still wondering if those flurries of Italian calumnies are actually
steganographic instructions to intelligence agents of some country.

It's a super-sneaky code. You take all of the posts sent to c.l.p and
determine whether they are spam or ham; a spam post represents a 0
bit, and a ham post is a 1 bit. The flurries of spam are carefully
timed to interleave with actual user posts in order to transmit
information.

I get by just with a very old rule that lowers the score of articles
where the subject is in all caps. Those articles end up in the bottom of
the article list with the other crap and are easily ignored.

Yes for readers that can interpret Python.  Mine doesn't.  This is the 
rule per the syntax of my reader but as you say that is easily translated 
to any other format.
