I wonder what the peers of your profession might think if it were made known
to them that you were gormless enough to spam Usenet groups with totally
irrelevant postings. Of course you probably don't give a damn about being
struck off do you, because you were probably never on, exactly, were you?
Anyone with a decent rep isn't going to screw it up with this kind of
bullshit.

Better to send forward the message with all the headers to
groups-abuse@google.com

....and even if you and 9999 more people do bitch to Google
sufficiently to reach their threshold,
all Google will do is cancel *that account*;
**the individual** is still able to make another Google account
(or even MANY other accounts)
EVEN USING THE SAME EMAIL ADDRESS.
Google doesn't care a bit; it's all automated--poorly.

The only chance you have of affecting change
is to do a reverse-DNS
http://www.dnsstuff.com/?ptype=free
on the abuser's IP address
NNTP-Posting-Host: 180.234.51.76
and lodge a complaint with the abuser's provider.

Good luck getting the attention of the Bangladeshi ISP.

So the net fails. All of it.

Which brings me back to my little joke of yesterday, perhaps that IS the way
to solve it if we want to. Never mind trying to shoot down unreachable
messengers, just bring the people who intend to benefit from the spam to the
attention of their own peers. The medical boards of Canada are no doubt far
too busy doing their jobs to know about this little bit of business, but it
WOULD make a difference if someone personally made this known to them. NO
spammer or arse-covering ISP or other net service provider is going to go out
of their way to propagate spam in any form if the originating incentive is
removed at source. Maybe the old method of paper mail sent to someone who has
power and reason to censure the people directly aiming to demean their
own peers and profession with this spam will police themselves. But they
won't if they don't know. And I bet they don't, because everyone on the net
seems to think the net providers should handle this, and they obviously
don't, and probably can't.

And I admit being sufficiently lazy and clueless that I'm not about to follow
through with this idea of mine, but I will ponder it some as other occasions
arise.

Actually I would disagree that google is not doing anything. For the
past few months I've been forwarding all the spam I saw on eight
newsgroups I frequent and I do beleive there is less spam than there was
before I started.

Not saying I am the only person doing this, perhaps there are enough of
us that Google is filtering these clowns better than they used to.

In any case, like the lack of elephants on our city streets, I plan to
continue forwarding to Google groups or whoever I can to try and keep
the spam to a minimum.

I got a bit PO'd at the above piece of spam also. (Though why is it
that much worse than the rest?) I was thinking of forwarding it to
the company. And telling them that some one using the name of Katie
Cottone was spamming and giving a bad name to their business.

Maybe I still will.
