360221 - Would like ability to filter newsposts on more criteria

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 16913

(Thunderbird :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Tony Mechelynck [:tonymec]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061109 SeaMonkey/1.5a
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061109 Thunderbird/2.0b1pre

Details:
I would like to be able to filter newsposts on more criteria than just "Subject" "From" or "Date".

Example:
if NNTP-Posting-Host is 123.45.67.89 -> Mark as Read

to plonk a troll with random from-lines but fixed IP address -- as seen recently on "mozilla.support.firefox" and "mozilla.support.thunderbird" at news.mozilla.org

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools -> Message Filters -> [select a newsgroup] -> New

Actual Results:  
Criteria (leftmost drop-down list, vertically near the middle of the UI) offers only "From", "Subject" and "Date".

Expected Results:  
I would like more options, including at least "NNTP-Posting-Host".

Additional info:
I don't care whether these additional criteria require downloading the mail before testing. See "Details" above for an example of the kind of filtering I'd like to do.
