If so, how?

I cannot add kill filters because there are too many names to do so
with Agent.

Eternal September is filtering for me. All the spammers are going nuts
trying to get their spam in before google groups shuts down posting in a
month because of them.

I was actually wondering, are Eternal September's filters good or are
there others that have less spam? I still seem to be getting a lot of
weird spam things in between normal posts.

I'm on Eternal September and I saw 2 spam messages yesterday (might have
been Saturday). I use Thunderbird and just killed the thread.

Other than the 2 recent ones, I have not seen much spam recently.

Too bad Google didn't shut it down on a week ago. That would had been OK with me. :P

Yes, ES's owners are as far as I'm aware the only ones battling the
spam. There's still been a couple leak through in the last week here,
but very manageable.

It's free, so might as well change to it at least until google kills off
posting.

You could instead set anything coming from an email @google.com as
filtered, that should get rid of everything too, might get rid of all my
posts older than the last month, and anybody replying to post from 1994,
but that's probably worth it. They'll still be available to look up on
the google archive (for the moment anyway.)

I don't know, for me ES seems good enough. Although I've enabled
filtering for Google Groups posters in some groups when spam comes
through. Apparently (from posts in eternal-september.support) some of
the spammers care and try to adapt to the filtering various Usenet
servers do which seems completely incomprehensible. Maybe they have some
kind of monetization metric that works on Usenet distribution of that
spam, somehow. I guess they could show it to their customers claiming
their spam has been distributed? Or they have a specific target in mind
and that works as a metric?

I never understood the usenet spam in the first place. There simply
isn't any audience for this to be successful anymore, and yet they keep
spamming. I think they are just running bots that are filling whatever
unsecured comment field they can find with no regard as to what it is. I
think Google basically just left the door open for them. I don't know if
any of them even know what USENET even is.

Not on this group, at least. Others are getting a bit of it, and I saw
an announcement that they had to block a domain, or something like that.

But take what I write with a grain of salt. I have not been checking
daily, so maybe the spam is getting removed from the server before I get
to login and refresh at the end of the day.

Its based on the old trope about internet use spiking up in September
when college students returned to school.

and the Eternal September being when the general public got access to
that shiny new internet thing and therefore ruining the internet forever

I always assumed the name was more about being Usenet access for the
masses, and not about ruining the net forever, after all that's Google's
