Oops. Didn't see that you had already posted that idea. I'm sorry. :)

But anyway, I had another idea (which hasn't already been mentioned.) ;)

Since there are a good deal of "gems" in Google groups, and not all of 
them are spam artists, how about a whitelist/blacklist in the program? 
That way some posts from "good" people come through from G-Groups, and 
others (the "bad" ones) don't.

Plus, the ones that you do blacklist would auto-generate a message to 
groups-abuse at google.com. That'll show 'em. :D

Good luck!
