My thoughts exactly. Gmail has one of the best spam filters I've ever seen. Google Groups has no spam filter at all as far as I can tell. How has this oversight

  "Google Groups has no spam filter at all as far as I can tell." Sure it does. In the admin section are a few different options for controlling spam. One of the best is to require that first-time posters have their initial post held for moderation.

    ...which works great for the small groups I manage, but can get unmanageble for larger groups. I believe jQuery moved from Google Groups to Zoho due mainly to the spam problem.
