Hello. I've been using uqwk to get news, with trnkill to kill
spam, but my ISP removed uqwk and trn while upgrading their
unix server so I've decided to use souper. It works OK, but
I can't understand how I can kill crossposts... I run souper
with the following line:

souper -h . -k 1024 -m -N hol_rc -K hol_kill

and `hol_kill' contains the following:

all {
-1 pattern Newsgroups: .*,.*,.*,.*
-1 Subject: money
-1 Subject: cash
-1 Subject: $$$
10 Newsgroups: answers
}

I want to kill crossposts to 4 or more groups, except ones
to an *.answers group, but the first line doesn't seem to work...
I remember some time ago there were some posts about how to do it
but I wasn't able to find them in the list archives...

Incidentaly, I sent a message to "support" at my ISP, asking them
to install souper in their unix server, so that
I could download compressed soup packets. Is this a good idea?
They told me they'd look at it, but they wanted to be sure there
would be no problems with it running in the server.

Thanks for any help!
