Thunderbird also now has an ignore subthread option [shift-K] which is
ideal for this. It can be applied in the filter too so anything
following a troll reply disappears. If there are others who match the
filter, those can be filtered above in the chain and the filtering
stopped when they are detected.

Are you from Joisey?"

Do Portuguese-Australians (such as yourself) still speak Old English
(a.k.a., Anglo-Saxon), Nuno?
