Is there anything that can be done about all the spam on this NG?
I'll be glad to help if someone can tell me what to do.

Delete all spammers?

Do you have any suggestions?

Do you want to get rid of spammers, or just have your reader ignore the
posts?


You are posting with 40tude, (had to look at msg headers) with it's
score and filter system it should be 1 of the better readers to ignore
spam with.

Try looking in this ng
news.software.readers
http://groups.google.com/group/news....pics?lnk=gschg

If there isn't already an answer, try posting with a subject line like

[40tude] Need help with filters/scoring to remove shoe sales spam.

Remember to say what version of 40tude your are using,
40tude_Dialog/2.0.15.1

Some questions about spamm scoring found by searching above group using

subject: 40tude.

A few subject keyword filters gets rid of most.

I am trying the Plonk feature on 40tude Dialog, but it doesn't seem
to do much.
