spam on uk.d-i-y
The group appears to have run into something of a spam bombing with
long junk titles. Any ideas to defeat the b******ers? Some releif could be had if a posting title could be changed - but how to do that? |

If you use a newsreader such as Outlook Express, then you can set the maximum number of lines to 50 or 60, this regurgitated ****e is always 192kb, meaning it's a lot more than this.....I've just done it, so thanks, I can't tell you how to do it via Google froups. |

Of course, I don't use crap like googlegroups Isn't it amazing *how many people one sees on NG's that just because they are not using something then it's "crap". Maybe GG's is crap I don't know. *But somehow I think crap is often overrated crappee. You see the (obvious) spam in the topic list. You ignore it. End of problem. MBQ |
