spam on uk.d-i-y

The group appears to have run into something of a spam bombing with long junk titles.



Any ideas to defeat the b******ers?



Some releif could be had if a posting title could be changed - but how to do that?


If you use a newsreader such as Outlook Express, then you can set the maximum number of lines to 50 or 60, this regurgitated s**te is always

192kb, meaning it's a lot more than this.....I've just done it, so thanks, I can't tell you how to do it via Google froups.

Thanks for that - it works very nicely in PAN too!

I don't see them. Of course, I don't use crap like googlegroups

Isn't it amazing how many people one sees on NG's that just because they are not using something then it's "crap". Maybe GG's is crap I don't know. But somehow I think crap is often overrated crappee.

You see the (obvious) spam in the topic list. You ignore it. End of problem.
