Anybody know how to delete/filter spam on Google Groups? This NG seems
to get a lot of Asian, etc. spam.


TIA


Check out "aioe.org", it's a free
service that I use and I never see
a lot of Spam. The site has instructions
on how to setup various newsreaders.


Thanks, Uncle. I had been to their Web site, but was baffled.
They say: "A set of visual configuration howtos
for the most common UNIX newsreaders are stored in this section."

The list does not include my newsreader/email client ???.

What do they mean by that? Is a newsreader the same as
one's email client? Mine is Forte Agent, which I have used for a long
time.

How can I configure Agent to read aioe.org?


For news server, put in: news.aioe.org

For login method, choose, "no login required".

Very simple!
