Default OT: Another newsgroup NUT - 01-16-2008 , 12:30 PM






What's with this idiot posting (apparently) Bible quotes in everybody's
name?

It seems to be only on this group as far as I can see and it is always a Re:
Now to try filtering this out. I'm all for bible study but put it in the
appropriate group...

If your newsreader supports filtering on the NNTP-Posting-Host: header, then
drop anything showing 'interware.hu' in that header.

A more drastic method would be to drop anything with 'googlegroups.com' in the
Message-ID: header. The vast majority of Usenet spam these days is coming
through Google Groups accounts -- and Google doesn't care, and isn't willing
to do one damn thing to stop it.

If you are using Outlook or OE you can set rules to block these jerks. I
only see the good guys.

these into the replies.

then

A more drastic method would be to drop anything with 'googlegroups.com' in
the
Message-ID: header. The vast majority of Usenet spam these days is coming
through Google Groups accounts -- and Google doesn't care, and isn't
willing
to do one damn thing to stop it.

Unfortunately Outlook Express does not allow filtering on headers. There is
only a very limited set of filters available :-(

Of course it does. Some headers, anyway, like From: -- it has to look at that,
for the 'Block Sender' function to work. It also filters on the Subject:
header.

But it doesn't filter on either of the ones you need here (NNTP-Posting-Host:
or Message-ID.

You could download a copy of NewsProxy (also known as Nfilter) and configure
that -- it *will* filter on those headers, and it's compatible with Outlook
Express.

Nice suggestion - Thanks.

Any idea if that will also work with Yproxy that I already use?

Probably not -- you'd be trying to use two proxies for the same service.

I reported this to Road Runner and today I don't see their
presence in any of the newsgroups. Maybe they killed him/them.
We can only hope.
