Hi All,

I saw Kenny McCormack posted what to do about the spam
here for trn. This is what I do when using *tin*.

You can add these 4 lines to file "~/.tin/filter", I found
this was the only solution that worked for me. The others I
found in a WEB search failed.

group=*
case=0
score=kill
msgid_last=*<*@googlegroups.com>*

Using this means you will not see any threads created by
someone posting via google groups. I have not see all the
spam coming in, but I just looked and I cannot believe the
amount being sent here. Thus this post :)

Regards
John
