Hehe. Just *try* to follow the discussion in
news:alt.privacy.anon-server for a few weeks and you *will* need
it. Unless you have a better idea how to do that ;) (or the floods
just stop when you start trying...)
If you think that is unreadable: Hide all articles containing a line
like (you need to adjust that line every few weeks...)
I luv that "Boschlooney The Last" character [0-9A-Z]+
and you will see that it is quite readable. But - unfortunately - not
with Gnus...
Michael
