[leafnode-list] Removing posts from leafnode

Chaps,

I'm thinking about trying some aggressive killfiltering and I want to try to 
do it via an external script.  Can fetchnews call an external script and use 
that to make the kill decisions rather than leafnodes own filter options?

Alternatively I can read the mail using a script directly from the news spool 
or perhaps connecting to leafnodes server in the conventional way, what is a 
good way to delete posts?  Deletion directly in the news spools seems 
dangerous to me as I don't know how leafnode handles it.  Alternatively I 
suppose I could generate a filter file full of message id's and use 
applyfilters but that seems inefficient and messy.

Any thoughts?

Pete
