To the list administrator: do you have a policy about spammers here?
could you do something with messages like this? (filter rules, for
example...?) Im being tired of such shit on my mailbox. In other lists,
one to three spam messages from a user mean his/her being fired from the
list.

If you have already done something, please ignore and excuse this
message, but this is the 4\ufffd or 5\ufffd message of this kind I have read in
the list.

Thanks and best regards.

Nacho.

As always, excuse my bad english.

Yes, I forcibly remove them from the list immediately.

No I can't.  Yahoo groups is a large, well known service.  It has a
number of very good spam protection mechanisms, but sufficently
motivated spammers will work around those mechanisms.  Such is life.

   > Im being tired of such shit on my mailbox.

When you forward the spam to the list you multipy the problem.
Please don't do that.

i belong to anumber of yahoo groups.
they are all being spammed by the same people.
it _appears_ to be an automated process.

they are all being posted via an AOL IP address.

they are all spamming for a site hosted on the
same network in germany [a network whose abuse
department is run by "dave null" apparently]

it's getting so bad that i am probably going to
change the email address i use for yahoo groups
so i don't have to look at this crap in my main
spambox.. i mean inbox...

spammers are ruining usenet too.
there are groups on usenet that are nothing but spam.
seriously - only spam because everybody got sick of it.
so who do they think is reading them?

the rules of spammers/spamming:
Rule #0: Spam is theft.
Rule #1: Spammers lie.
Rule #2: If a spammer seems to be telling the truth, see Rule #1.
Rule #3: Spammers are stupid.
Rule #4: The natural course of a spamming business is to go bankrupt.

these are not advertising sent by yahoo.
they are cretinous criminals polluting our groups.
when i see spam in one group i know it's only a matter
of hours before i see the exact same spam in another group.



btw: stop apologizing for your "bad english" okay?
you re doing just fine so do not mention it again!
