- Try what I've been doing. I got this idea from a reader of
- news.admin.net-abuse.misc who stated that people in that group won't be able
- to help in this situation because of a lack of concensus. What he suggested,
- and what I have subsequently done, is to send *email* *not* *posts* to those
- responding to the spam thread, asking them to remove the group in question (in
- this case c.s.a.misc) from their headers. Usually there is no response. When
- there is a response, it is generally polite. I've even gotten one reply asking
- for info on the Amiga situation. :)
