Reports made to Google Groups are a complete waste of time. Google will only cancel *that* account (without blocking the IP address). It takes the spammer 30 seconds to enable *another* account. That is, ZERO real effect. It should also be noted that each time this is done plonk files could grow by one item. For Blogspot/Googlepages spam, report those to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] adsense-abuse@ google.com That puts his site into Google Hell (screws up his GoogleRank). The most effective effort you can make is to do a reverse-DNS on the NNTP-Posting-Host http://private.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=122.164.105.235&email=on and report abusers to their providers. This assumes their ISPs aren't complete rogues. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
