Not filtering... blocking.  Jim said (see above) that filtering Mark's posts 
into a killfile wasn't "an option on this particular account".  With some 
mail servers you can only block e-mail from a particular sender, not filter 
it out to a separate folder or the trash.  By _blocking_ his e-mail, your 
computer wouldn't even download it from the server because the server itself 
would prevent it from ever reaching your mailbox.)
