Correction, yes it does - I wasn't looking hard enough.

Twit Filter
-----------
- Extras -> Options -> Filters Tab
- At the side of the Import pane, click "Add"
- In the "Beschreibung"(Description) field, give the filter a name
- Click the "Kriterien" Tab
- In the "Absender"(Sender) field, enter the name of the "twit"
- Click the "Absender" checkbox
- Click the "Original" Tab
- Click the "Originalmail Loschen"(Delete original message) checkbox
- Click the "Ubernehmen" button
- Click the "OK" button

NOTE:
This deletes *ALL* new incoming mail from the "twit".

If you want to delete mail from the "twit" in a specific area, click  
the "Zielarea" checkbox on the "Kriterien" Tab and then click on the  
pulldown menu and select the specific area.

After setting this up, I tested the filter by rescanning(for xx days)  
an echo and here's the result:

Cool eh? :-))

As for the kill thread filter, it would be set up in a similar manner  
but instead of searching for the "Sender"(Absender) you would need to  
search for the "Subject"(Betreff) on the "Kriterien" Tab. I haven't  
actually tested this but I don't see why it shouldn't work. I'll leave  
that to you but you try it at your own risk ;)

Regards,
Martin
