With Mystic there are two ways.

1. Use a twit filter with your own account:

  Add a new menu option somewhere with the "(UF) Edit Twit Filter" action.
  This will hide all past & future messages from that person for your account   while still leaving them visible for others.

2. Use the twit= option in your mailin.ini with mutil

  This will stop all future messages coming into your system from that person
  or system for you and everyone else.  e.g:

  twit=Person One
  twit=Person2
  twit=1:234/567
  twit=21:1/123


I prefer option 1 myself as the messages are still there and I can remove that person's name from the list if I need/want to see that message, plus it leaves it there for anyone else on my board.  They can decide if they also need/want to add them to their own twit list.
