That's a whole lot of negativity, much of which can be sidestepped --
maybe.

My newsreader, called "Eternal September" has a block feature. Yours
may have one, also.

In my case, if I right click on a sender's name, a five-item sub-menu
appears and I can click "add the blocked senders list." (I have done it
for one person, here.) For me, this didn't purge any messages already
received but it stops all the new ones. Some news clients may use a
"Filter" menu for this function. I hope this helps.

Eternal September is a usenet server, not a news reader. And they do
not have a block sender option. That is a function of your news reader,
whatever that is.
