Has no posting history whatsoever at google groups.
One more time to all of the Usenet vermin (trolls) who
post on these groups: I am not reading your *****, nor
any responses to your posts, and I don't give a flying
***** what you think or what you post.
I know you think you are clever with all the head munging
and switching of newsservers, but these childish tricks
only fool the ignorant.
Anyone can check the posting history of any alias at:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search
Only takes a second. Just cut the alias from the header
From line and paste it into the Author box and hit Search.
If the header is so screwed up that google can't deal with it,
then you know you've got a troll.
Generally, the upshot of this will be no returns on the
alias.
Killfile it.
Include all of the From: header contents, not just
the visible name. It's the Reply-To mailing address
(if any) that counts. Not the one in the From:
header. Trolls like to change that, unnecessarily, to
throw off searches.
If the post has no parent reference and says "Re:",
then killfile the alias. It's a troll fucking around
with the Reference headers.
