Sure, but not user-friendly in the least. You can figure out how to
configure it through a series of searches on the Internet, but most of
what you would want to do can't be done from within the program. Much of
it requires you to edit the configuration file and to know, before you
start, what patterns to use to get things accomplished. At least in
Thunderbird's case, it works without any confusion. It still has that
bug that the filters won't work until you unsubscribe and resubscribe to
a group, but otherwise it's perfect.
I find it very easy to click on a post, ignore the thread, or put the
author in the bozo bin for a period of time. You can also set the cross
post count for a group.
The problem is that you will always end up with people like Larry
Pietraskiewicz who will change his name daily but follow an easy to
filter pattern. Pan and slrn don't allow you to filter patterns as
easily as Thunderbird/Betterbird does. It filters crossposts a lot more
easily though. In this client, I have to write in the name of the other
newsgroups people post from to get rid of them whereas in Pan, it's a
simple setting.
