Hey there,

Is there something we can do to prevent all this spam from coming in to the group? Maybe we could switch to a moderated list or something like that?

Hope y'all have a good day.

Ohyahou Dylan

Hey im a bit confused... I'm not getting any spam, but most days I get
an email prompting me to moderate a whole lot of spam, which I do and
mark as 'spam'. I'll check it out next time I get one, perhaps I'm
doing it all wrong.

Hehe that's strange.. I've been getting a fair bit lately, but no more than 1 or 2 every couple of days.

Thanks Glenn.

Dylan

I've had the same pattern as Dylan, and had been wondering where the spam came from as I've never received any before with this email account
(lucky me!)

cheers

I do not get the spam.
Perhaps it is a Spam filtering issue on email browsers individual settings?
Perhaps Glenn could simply delete rather than marking as spam??

Looks like the group needs to be changed to "moderate first posts" -
seems to be the only way to have a google group these days.

I'm getting spam through this too :(

Nice one - thanks for the tip. Done.
