I'll blame the rain, Edmund. :)

Perhaps we should all just learn Italian . . . .


Reading from News, I think I've seen one or two of the Italian spams in
the last week or so. I've got a filter rule in place for that stuff that
seems to be reasonably effective (including killing threads), although I
had to add one more new term.  Logs indicate that there were 3 threads
killed on the 27th, and that's it.

I'm not sure what that all looks like for those reading from mailing list.

The only way that I've found to effectively filter out all of the spam
is to filter Google Groups. I filter it on news.mozilla.org so it
catches all groups - example:

[8/28/2017 4:44:27 PM] Applied filter "Injection-info: googlegroups.com"
to message from ORIANO...at 8/28/2017 3:30:13 PM ignored subthread

Unfortunately this also filters out a lot of valid posts, including some
developer posts from googlegroups, but that's ok with me.



Not okay with me. That's why I use snippets from the Subject Line.

I have been reporting this spammer to the ISPs. Seems to have tapered a bit.

If it wasn't for bitter Italians (or one amazingly prolific bitter Italian) a lot of 
newsgroups nowadays would be entirely bereft...

Are you saying that legitimate messages were queued up
for moderation? I imagine there is a white-list for
already-seen posters though, right?
