True... but what if I don't want to be quite that elitist and black-ball
every one posting via google groups?  Some mailing lists I read via
gmane *originate* on google groups (web2py list, for one).  Other people
posting from google groups are not malicious/trolls/jerks/spammers - and
honestly until I started using slrn again, I didn't understand what all
the fuss was about - gui news readers like Thunderbird handle the
messages from there just fine.  

Maybe slrn needs an upgrade to gracefully handle html formatted messages 
- good bad or otherwise, they're pretty much here to stay, kind of like 
google groups.  There are programs like lynx, elinks, etc. that can 
handle simple html via a cli program... so its not entirely beyond the 
realm of possibility.
