They all come from Google Groups. Complain to them.

Those of us with real news servers and readers set up filters so we
don't see them.


Honestly, I don't understand why Google doesn't just throw their email
filters (which are excellent) over to the google groups news reader.
Fine - don't filter spam out for the "archive" part, but please spare
"group" readers any spam you (Google) can. What happens is it just
makes those of us who have filter capabilities less likely to use
Google to read usenet when we're not at our regular computers that
have news readers with filtering capability.

God forbid I should go on a *real* vacation and not be able to keep up
with the family style sharing, joking and in-fighting here. LOLOL!
