I use the free MT-Newswatcher on a Mac. It has very good filtering
facilities. There are and would be many others, paid and free, for other
platforms. On mine, one can simply go to a menu as one is reading a post
and immediately form a filter that latches on to the details in that
post and you can can choose what action to take. For example, to kill
such, to highlight such, to send flowers to the poster via interflora
etc.
As for email, you can contin..., I mean, you can use an email address
that you monitor by allowing only known people to come into your inbox,
the rest into another or junk folder that you make a quick scan of now
and then...
