Hmm... that would do the trick, I guess, but isn't very useful as a  
general
solution.  Is there any way do do this automatically with the newer  
betas of
Pan?  If not, would anyone object to my making this a feature  
request?  I
don't think this is quite a duplicate of bug 108566 [1], as that bug  
doesn't
mention automatically ignoring based upon author.

Thanks for the reply, anyway!
