I myself I just push the Delete-Key in Vista Windows Mail, and it's gone.
The person making those posts, which he or she are spamming many NG(s) is
changing subject content and posting names so that it will come through. It
would be a hard filter to create to catch them as they change.

I've just changed to Gravity to stop this. Seems to work OK as you can
mark as read cross-posted stuff, which you can't on Thunderbird.

As you are using Agent just add a kill filter to ignore.

Subject: (MI5 or (M & I & 5))

Since you're using Agent, check alt.usenet.offline-reader.forte-agent
and news.software.readers. There are several possibilities.

If I recall correctly, I saw something like:

M.*I.*5.*P.*e.*r.*s.* ...
