What does Thunderbird's newsgroup filtering lack that makes you so harsh?


The ability to filter on the number of cross posed newsgroups for a start.

Another missing capability is the lack of support for regular expression or wild cards in the match condition. It would be easy to create a regular expression that matched the MI5 variations.
