    Hi to the owner and moderators. Could you remove (or block) the spammers, please?

    Thanks, Brian.

    Usenet groups have no owners. There are moderated groups but they all
    have "moderated" somewhere in their name.

    The problem is that someone is exploiting Google's indifference to their posting spam via groups.google.com. The only thing Google has done so
    far is to mark some (comp.arch being the only example I know of) groups
    as read only at groups.google.com

    You can (and I am) marking posts as spam at googlegroups.com. Maybe
    eventually this will have an effect. It probably helps if I am not the
    only one doing it.
