I really am offended that you've spammed this group with the improveusenet  spam. I'm not a lamer, and I've probably been using usenet longer than you, and certainly done more anti-spam work in this group than you. To killfile me just because I use this stupid interface would be as wrong as any ISP cutting off an entire domain just because a user got hijacked.

I might change my opinion if your org made a useable suggestion of a better interface, but I haven't seen that yet.
