Well... perhaps one of those offerings will be an advertisement
for an anti-spam soft ;-)

If your newsreader permits, you can block messages from a sender, or
possibly a domain. Unfortunately, many times, if you block the sender, they
change the name (x...@spam.com to y...@spam.com) to keep new messages coming
through, or, if you block a domain (stupid-...@THISDOMAIN.com) then not
only will the spam be blocked, but any message from any person from
THISDOMAIN.com will get blocked.
Outside of that, there's not much you can do (I suppose you can report the
messages, but, it never seems to do much good).
Fortunately, in my experience the spammer will cease (or maybe they're
actually caught - at least that's my fantasy) after a bit. We had one
somewhat recently from "MI5" that was like 10 or 12 messages each day. Then,
they just went away. At least the watch people are doing fewer (either that
or they're using the same address enough that my blocker is blocking them).
I just select the message and choose "block sender" (MS Outlook Express). It
doesn't download the message, and I don't see it. I suppose on something
like Google Groups though it stays in the list????
HTH,

Nothing like trying to help someone who asks a question...

Yes, they do, Steve.

Ok, ok, apologizing... sense of humour is often quite personal,
but wasn't "anti-spam soft" a hint toward help?
