I'm relatively new to this NG (lurked in the past, of course), so
forgive my stupid question here. But is this NG moderated at all? I
don't see a lot of spam, which is rare for a NG, so I thought maybe it
was.

I messed up and made a few posts under my "other" Google account,
which has my active work email address attached. I'm hoping to contact
a mod and have him to correct those posts so that my unimportant Gmail
address will show, instead (and hopefully prevent too many spammers
from picking up the active address).

If there is a mod for this NG, how can I contact him/her?

No moderator and many frown on postings via Google Groups.

You would be encouraged to use a real newsreader instead.

For years I used Forte Agent, but then they dropped access to
NGs unless one paid a (small) fee.

I did for a while, but my NG usage is so very small and limited
that I find it easier just to use Google Groups rather than to
sign up for what you call a "real newsreader".

So, this is a serious question: Why do you say that use of
Google is "frowned on" by many?

it's a source of much of the newsgroups spam, so it's just a reaction to the
other users of it.
