There's no moderator; this isn't a moderated newsgroup.

If you used a real newsreader and a real news service instead of
googlegroups, you'd be able to filter the posts if your news provider
wasn't already doing it.


Seems to be hard to do with Mozilla/Firefox/Seamonkey. Because he
is rotating the spaces, and punctuation, you can't filter on the
subject or sender field. Mozilla/Firefox/Seamonkey only allow filtering
on the subject, and sender fields.

The paranoid moron, of course, knows this. He wants to be sure
our filters don't deny him his audience.

So, I have been forwarding everything he posts to abuse at his
newsgroup sender. He should be needing some new isp accounts
shortly.

You shouldn't have to be doing it, your ISP should be running cleanfeed
and have a news admin on staff who deals with this stuff. Call up Erols
and ask if Afterburner or Ereshkigal are still working there.

He cycles through them on a regular basis. He loses accounts, then
just gets new ones. The solution is to have your news admin deal with
it on the server. If your news admin is running "cleanfeed" it should
deal with it automatically because it has a feature to pattern match
repeated posts to multiple groups.

All that is left of Erols is really only the name. They were bought up
by RCN, and then StarPower (Pepco and RCN), and then spun off to become
RCN once again.

Erekose is probably still there. I have used his services on a number of
occasions.

However, I have seen no sign that RCN filters anything out of their news
feeds.

I could easily do the same thing by running my news through my spambayes
proxy. But I don't really care enough to bother.

It would be so terribly useful if Mozilla/Firefox/Seamonkey would provide
the same message filter capabilities for news that it does for email.

I have asked them about it but they just get all testy and tell me to do
it myself.

It's crazy not to, because there is convenient automated software that
does the job for you, and integrates well into the two most popular news
server packages, INN and CNEWS.

And because Usenet propagates from site to site, if your server runs
cleanfeed, the benefit is seen by all of the sites downstream of it.
This means the guys they feed are happier too.

Doesn't it allow simple regexp searches in headers? rn did that twenty-five
years ago. Just kill anything with more than three commas in the Newsgroups:
line.

It is true that this particular newsgroup does not have a moderator,
but there are moderated usenet groups.
