  1. How do you get rid of this thing? I have filter, plonked and refilter. The
    SOB is still slithering through.

    You need a newsreader that can filter by crossposted newsgroups. Kill
    his favorites, you won't see him.

    He changes his handle. He uses his domain as the address, and can set up
    as many ID proxies as he wants to. So when you filter on any given name,
    he just changes it from Heartdoc@ to nospam1 or 2 or 3 or 4... And he
    evades the killfiles.

    He's crossposting to lots of new and different groups nowadays. He only
    used to read sci.med.cardiology, but a "friend" of his began spamming
    lots of groups, particularly the diet ones about his wacko 2-pound diet
    which he now says isn't a diet.

    He has no favorites that he reads beyond SMC, so far as I know, but he
    posts to many. He posts here because I do and he's trying to embarrass
    me by acting like an ass. Funny logic.

  4. He seems to have a thing for diabetic groups too but I managed to killfile
    him in my newsreader by blocking his domain not just a particular address.
    Now I never see him no matter what version of his address he uses or which
    group he pops up in.

    That is what I did recently. I subscribed to SMC, pull headers only
    for that group and have my cross posting filter set to not download
    anything that appears in SMC to any of the groups I read.

    I have another copy of Agent set up that downloads from another news
    server and I don't filter. I did a search for Chung in that instance
    and found 233 messages in the 1 month retention.

    I have not seen one in my regular groups.

    So if one filter SMC, then he's invisible. That doesn't work for you,
    but for almost everyone else in RFC it will handle the problem.

    And you encourage him by replying to the troll bait. Funny logic.

    Wish I knew. Tried everything too... nothing works properly - in fact I
    got my filters so confused they were blocking "legit" posters - much to
    my disgust - so I have given up on that.... <sigh>

    I haven't seen anything except this post recently.

    And only because my filters for User-Agent = Pan
    supercede/over-ride those of Author or Subject contains Chung.

    I rarely see any. I have filters similar to what you mention, and a
    further one for the newsgroup SMC.

    I never see chung's posts anymore.
    All I had to do was set up a "from" killfile.
    Anything "From" that contains the word "chung" gets killfiled.

    Chung will always use his name _somewhere_ in the sender address. :-)

    The thing that has worked best for me is to filter any posts that
    are crossposted to more than 2 newsgroups. I find this eliminates
    almost all of the nutjobs, and very few legitmate posts are
    crossposted to more than one other newsgroup.
