You mean googlegroups, (the web interface thatlets you post USENET) not GMAIL - which us just email. Aaaah! I was wondering what that was all about. sheepish grin I've been using gmail for years now (since beta) and never had any problems with it, never any objections to it, little or no spam comes with a gmail return or sender address ... at least none that reaches my pop3 box. -P. I also use gmail just fine. Spam filters work and there is nary a real message that gets nailed as spam. I use Xnews for posting and reading. -- Best regards Han email address is invalid |

Consider: 1) Nearly all Usenet spam now is posted through GoogleGroups. 2) Many of these spam posts are tagged with email addresses that are NOT at gmail.com. 3) Many legitimate posters use email addresses at gmail.com but do NOT post through GoogleGroups. Thus, killfiling gmail will miss a lot of the spam, and kill a lot of posts that aren't spam.

Took your advice and Killfiled GoogleGroups using the instructions available through the website you suggested. Guess if any member of gmail posts here I can always read the replies.

You mean googlegroups, (the web interface thatlets you post USENET) not GMAIL - which us just email. p.s. I've been killfilling all posts from googlegroups... The threads I want to read don't seem to be hindered. I notice in some of the other newsgroups that some postings are filtered. These are usually neubies posting questions.... So I see the replies. I presume he can either filter on the IP address of the machine that posted, which would allow him to exclude articles posted through google groups, provided that he has a way to identify the owner of an IP address, or the domain name of the email address (or for that matter, any string) in the "From: " header. So he could do either, both, or neither. -- FF |
