  • Seeking Help: Unrecognized Language and Unwanted Emails

    From Paulo Souza@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 19 08:03:37 2023
    "Hey everyone. What's the issue here? I don't recognize the language of 90% of the topics here. When I use a translator, it seems to be about betting. The problem is that I've been receiving these messages in my email daily. Does anyone know what's going
    on?"

    Yes, it's a real pain. It comes about because this is not a moderated
    group, therefore anybody can post anything.

    It helps to use an actual newsreader, instead of Google Groups. I'm
    using gnus, which runs in emacs. One of its features is kill files.
    I've made some entries in my main kill file, and I didn't get any
    unwanted SPAM today.
