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<snip>...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.
