The problem is that Google Groups will let anyone post anything. The
solution is to find a real newsgroup server and learn how to use kill
filters.

Do we have to point out the difference between gmail and googlegroups
every damn day? The one has nothing to do with the other, as has been
mentioned two dozen times in the last week alone.

Tried that. That gets rid of a lot of legitimate posters too. People like
using the gmail spam filtered addresses to post from.

I'm having problems posting a reply to another thread in this group
using my own ISP's news service (which in turn uses SuperNews), so I
tried aioe.org. However, sci.electronics.repair is on aioe's
"Banlist".
