You are misinformed. Trolls post from anywhere, but nearly *ALL* the
spam comes from *google groups*. Many people filter the entirety of
google group posts, as do I, and I did not see the GarryJones post at
all.

Oh, your subsequent post of "I am not discussing that precisely. What I
say, is that many have eternal-september filtered also for a number of
reasons including the ones mentioned." is also wrong. In fact, you are
posting with a gmail address, and you stand a much larger chance of
being filtered than any e-s user. Filtering gmail is the second-most
active filtering process (for those who can't filter by Message-ID.

One simple line does it for me:
!delete Message-ID googlegroups.com
