Please consider discontinuing this practice. It doesn't deter the spammers, obviously, and it does clutter up the newsgroup for readers.

Actually, I greatly appreciate Malke's spam notice. Often, I have limited time to spend on the newsgroups and when she or someone else replies with the word 'spam' in the subject, I can just delete the messages when the headers come down and I don't have to waste my time with the messages.

Hi Stan
It is not done to deter the spammers it is done for as so people do not open them up for wasting their time or to even get on the spammers list and continue to get more spam that is most likely going to sent to their email address. Some will also contain on occasion some sort of Malware. I also warn people in other newsgroups the same. This practice is very helpful and is warranted.

If I drop it down and see the spam note, I move on and never bother to open it.
If you want to read lots of spam try another newsgroup. I can recommend several if that's what you want. Personally I'd like to neuter every one of the bass turds.

suggest you read the ms news group rules. states plainly HTML has always been welcome in ms news groups. if you do not like it then do not use ms news groups.
I can speak for as many people as I chose to just as others can.
