Some well tuned message filters in Seamonkey do a pretty good job for me.

I've never heard of a non-rechargable battery reversing its voltage - this suggests a read error...

Had somebody else written this I would have said the same thing. I checked it several times since I couldn't believe it. Thought maybe the meter was kibosh. Check the other batteries, check ok, that one...reversed, negative on top, positive on bottom. Freak battery.

I'd guess the reversed battery gave up before the other two, which continued to discharge through the dead one. The dead one shows a "reverse charge" now, but I suspect it hasn't much current capacity. Most of its contents are just flat, but some small part of it took a charge. Disposable batteries don't recharge well, but sometimes you'll see things like that. Is it an Alkaline D cell, or an old-style "Heavy Duty"? I haven't seen it happen with an Alkaline cell.

The one with the reverse polarity was semi-dead when installed. When it hit zero, the other good batteries continued to "charge" this battery, but backwards. It's a common problem when mixing cells in a series connected battery pack. As the pack discharges, the weakest cells will tend to be reverse polarized.

Sure. Hire a professional hit man and have him start at the top of this spammer list:

After a few of the top spammers are eliminated, the rest should get the clue and find something else to do.

Otherwise, look into Usenet filters such as Newsproxy/Nfilter
