What are you talking about? I didn't change the address at all. I'm
not even sure what you mean. Are you talking about the post subject
line (which I have never touched in any post)? If you're talking about
the OP's email address, that's Google's fault for cropping them.

It's a misfeature of Google's mail interface. The poster to whom
you're responding could choose a different mail interface, but you'll
have a difficult time convincing them of that.

the responses to their posts and changing the address makes this
impossible.
Not at all. AFAIK the messages from Google mail correctly include the
'In-Reply-To' field or the 'References' field in the message header.
So, you can know by those fields whether a message is part of a thread
you've previously identified.

I'm talking about castironpi. I find his posts a waste of my time so I
have them filtered out along with a few others and I also filter out
responses by searching for his address in the body so changing it
defeats that. However, if it is something that you have no control over
I apologize for the noise.

I don't want to have to tag every thread. I just want to *plonk*
certain posters.
Anyway, I'll live with Google's failings I guess.

No problem. I wish I could use something other than Google Groups when
I'm at work, but we currently have NNTP disabled...and I haven't found
a good workaround yet.

Sounds like you need better filtering.
A decent news filter should be able not only kill a poster, but also
all followups to that poster recursively.
(No, I don't know of any that do that either.)

Whatever. I'm too old to worry about searching for politically correct,
gender neutral pronouns.

Actually, I am reading this as a mailing list and since I run Unix and
procmail I am sure that I could set something up if it really starts to
be annoying. So far the simple filters deal with all but a smattering
of problem postings so I don't need to expend the time.

I'm pretty sure even the most PC people wouldn't suggest using a
masculine pronoun for an inanimate objects.
(Ok, some probably would.)

The Google Groups reader doesn't always let you see new replies to
really old messages, something they should change (this means you).
But there is an 'active old threads', but it doesn't catch every one.
I want to read those plonk. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
