Hello Barbara.

Sorry for the 2nd Subject change. But I thought that I'd better clarify
that this tip is for the Thunderbird email client (not its news side or
for other email clients).

Following the advice from the above tip. I created a new filter in
Thunderbird. In the Customize part, I typed "References" for the filter
to work on the "References" header, then in the field next to the new
"References" setting I typed in "@phx.gbl" (all without quotation
marks). Then chose a label to get a nice color to show it up.

It catches posts that are reply posts made to the unregistered posters
posts sent in by the moderators, by tripping up on "@phx.gbl" in the
References headers in those posts.

Caveat; it does not get all reply posts to unregistered posters, as they
don't all carry @phx.gbl in their Message-ID header (many do, but not
all do) so subsequently @phx.gbl will not appear in all of the
References headers of those reply posts...

It's not a fool-proof solution, just another aid that can be employed
along with others, such as filtering on [moderated] in the subject, and
"cc" etc.
