That is pointless, they simply do not care. If the poster in
question is just a spammer, he (or she) will never read your
message here. If he is a real person, you might have some success
by going to one of his regular groups (if any) and badger him
there.

Remember there are two ways to improve the signal-to-noise ratio, so
if you can't cut the noise, provide more signal. So what did you want
to talk about?

Maybe if we flood the group with On-Topic they'll be too busy to spew
(yeah, right).

Google groups* really needs a way to filter out crossposts...

What's that Lassie? You say that Glenn Lyford fell down the old
rec.crafts.metalworking mine and will die if we don't mount a rescue

you might look into getting a newsreader
that can run from a flash drive, or one that
can keep a record of what you've read/not read.
I believe Agent can do this.

Agent, and Eudora, both do that automatically.
