Innocent question .....

...... for the techies:

Let's say that a friend of mine had a friend who was writing a
book about a person using a newsreader that allowed her not just
to killfile X and also delete any posts in direct reply to X
(without 86ing the whole thread, mind you).... what newsreader
might he accurately say she was using?

If my many years of posts using Agent are any evidence, the answer is clear
