In its default online mode, Tb doesn't 'see' the msg body until the msg 
is accessed into its cache by selecting it.

In order to filter 'effectively' on all of the headers besides those in 
the overview as well as the body, you need to put 'something' in between 
your Tb and the server, to function as a 'personal' local server for Tb 
which local personal news server carries that lifting.

Previously Win users use to use such as Hamster (Playground), but I 
don't think that is around anymore.  Linux users have used LeafNode. 
Some years ago when I wanted more power between Outlook Express and the 
news server, I used Nfilter/NewsProxy, also gone now for modern Win.
