golang-announce is blocked in Google Groups?

[Jochen Voss]

Hello,

It seems that golang-announce is blocked in Google Groups.  When I try to access the group, I only get the following message:

    Banned content warning

    golang-announce has been identified as containing spam, malware or other malicious content.

    For more information about content policies on Google Groups, see ...

Anybody knows what this is about?

All the best,

Jochen

Jochen,

I get that message too.

https://groups.google.com/g/golang-announce

Google is also trying to lock me out of my gmail accounts, but they do that all the time.

I don't think Google puts their best people on security.

Hmmm, it is working for me at the moment. Are other people still
seeing the warning?

It's unfortunately the case that announce groups tend to pick up these
spam warnings, as people forget they signed up for the group and then
mark messages as spam.

For me it did show as blocked a few hours earlier but works now

Same here, the problem seems to have gone away.

I'm not sure whether this is the same issue, but most email from golang-nuts ends up in my spam folder. I keep marking them all as not spam, but so far, without any effect. Roughly 80% of the mail for this group ends up in the spam folder. Additional info: I recently created this Gmail account (for all things go-related), and I have a rule to funnel all email from golang-nuts into its own folder. Despite the rule, most email from the group goes straight to spam.

FWIIW, the same happens here. When creating a filter (assuming one is using GMail) you can tell it to never send emails that match the filter to Spam and that6 is what I ended up doing.

Same applies for me. Most of mail for this group would be moved to 'Spam'. Only a custom rule prevents that to take place.
