    I have noticed a feature of twitlist.cfg that I did not know existed. I have been picking up a newsgroup from another FTN system. I also then pas
    that newsgroup along, also via FTN, to another one of my systems.

    I recently added a name to the twitlist.cfg of a user who only posts one-line childish responses to every new topic that is brought up. Once I
    added that name to the file, not only did I stop seeing that user's posts
    on my synchronet system, I also noticed that sbbsecho uses the
    is it me.

    Not unless you go by the handle Texas Gate in the Formula 1 newsgroup. :)

    I have never traded messages with the guy. Actually, I don't think I have
    ever posted in that group. I just lurk. I figured out filtering him out really helped the signal-to-noise ratio. :)

    I have that newsgroup here, and his old messages should still be in it. The twitlist has only eliminated any newer ones from showing up.
