Xananews holds a single list of filters, but it allows you to
apply each one globally, per account or per newsgroup

Your message base is currently stored in the default location
This is usually the best place for it but you may want to move
it if this disk drive is getting full

no "list of filters" anywhere to be found, and no way to create one

classic newsreaders 40tude dialog, mesnews, gravity, are way better >especially dialog, because it uses hamster scoring with an editable

no other news reader is that user-friendly, not mesnews, or gravity

To create a filter in XanaNews: Options -> Filters -> Click 'Add'
button at the bottom and then select the parameters for the
filter and create the filter that you want.

sure enough! i've been testing xananews mostly in windows 7, but
didn't check this filter feature in windows 11 until moments ago
and there it is, the "add" button ... for some reason it doesn't
appear under windows 7; on windows 11, i didn't see any new file
after successfully adding "google.com" under message-id with not
to download; but i'll definitely test this on windows 11 more in
the next few days . . . but thank you for the helpful correction
