    I just killfiled him. Made him happy. His posts are useless
    and OT.
    PS Be very careful with newsreaders that "render" html. Some
    will prefetch DNS and links and are a privacy breach.

    What name did you use to put in your kill file? Everything that I've tried hasn't worked.

    The From: field uses a mechanism for carrying wider characters
    and so your client would need to be able to handle that kind of value.

    From: =?UTF-8?B?8J+YiSBHb29kIEd1eSDwn5iJ?= <Hello.World@example.com>

    You could filter on "news.mixmin.net" :-)

    Or, you could wipe over the text shown on screen here, to
    have the string carried in-band to your NEWS client killfile screen.

    😉 Good Guy 😉 <==== In Notepad, shows as two squares on either side of the string
    I can't tell from here, whether this will show up or not.

    If your NEWS client carries killfile values in some simple
    file, maybe you could edit the file by hand and place the
    string in that way.
