Not as far as I'm concerned. That's much harder. It' much easier to have 
a filter in place and not even have to look to see who each message is 
from. I go through newsgroups using the space bar to move down to the 
next message.

With some trolls, maybe. But as I said, if you're dealing with a troll 
it's foolhardy to rely on any information he provides being any good.
