No. I had thought it was in the Help file (a real quick check though,
and it didn't jump right out at me though.) I guess I should put it in
the FAQ because I've seen the question a few times.
I've used it quite a bit in the past (before I got my own domain name
and SPAM dropped to zero.)
It does delete messages off the server, but first TB will download all
the message headers, match your kill filter criteria, start
downloading messages, and then when it gets to a message that matched
your kill filter, it just skips over it and tells the server to delete
it.
