I no longer use KillThread. Instead, I sort my inbox by subject, and use the Delete key liberally. NANOG is by no means my first mailing list where religious wars have broken out. (*cough* Linux kernel list) :)
I used to gate mailing lists into cnews, and then just use tin with well-developed killfiles. Been a while though since I've touched a news system at all. (long live sizone.uucp! :) Unfortunately I haven't gotten mutt to the tin level (though collapsing threads makes reading the index easier..). (Ctrl-D to kill an entire thread in mutt btw.)
