In your inbox you can scan through the spam folder to make sure that everything in it is indeed spam. You can't do that with messages that are withheld from a group. And for the record, Google Groups does have a spam filter that can be enabled in the moderation settings. The possible spam messages get sent to a moderation queue for a review. I imagine that for a group this size, the amount of work involved in moderation would be too great. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
