Moderation ios not going to fix this problem, as a message in a moderated newsgroup simply contains a field in the header saying it has been approved by the moderater. If you can forge headers you can certainly forge that one. If you were going to move to moderated status I would certainly propose that the first stage would be a cross-post splitter 'bot - indeed as most spams are excessively crossposted (my definition, not the official one) simply making the group 'no crossposts' and then enforcing it with a 'bot would eliminate most of the rubbish. -- The views expressed are my own and may not represent those of my employer |
