Yes. We moderate a crap ton of spam on this list that subscribers never see.

Does this list have non-member moderation enabled? Having that on
helps block most of the spam bots that troll google groups.

It's not that *this* list is a target. It's that *every* list is a
target. The cost to send spam is practically zero, so it would take
more time and energy to decide what lists *not* to spam. The sad thing
is that it works and is obviously profitable, otherwise it would have
stopped long ago.

I do not really understand their motivation, 99% of the groups out
there are not going to be susceptible to spam. Most groups are tech,
or at least, highly niche, and the people on it are going to know it
is spam. Most groups are filtered into a folder, there are just so
many red flags.
This looks just great... can't wait to try itj

I would say, considering I can only recall a few spam posts getting through,
you guys [sic] do a great job.

Why yes we can, and we do... loads of it.
The problem is that these spammers are spoofing the "from" address of
list owners who usually get automatically posted and skip the
moderation step. This is a flaw of the way Google Groups handles
incoming posts, and not of the group admins.

exactly, and deleting from the group won't affect those of us that read it
via email. once it's deleted it'll still be in our inboxes. it's not that
big a deal. just delete the message.

you probably wouldn't believe how much spam we delete before it actually

Google group admins can actually DELETE spam, too, which would be
nice.
I have asked Alex to modify his settings to Moderated, which should
cut back on his spoofed spam.
