OT - GG Spammers



I started a thread on Google Groups - asking why Google
could not do more to suppress the torrent of spam to the
comp.lang.java.* hierarchy groups, coming from Google
Groups posters.

A GG apologist challenged me as to what proof I had
that these spammers were using GG. My 'best guess'
was the 'X-trace' shown in the full listing of the post. So
far, *8/8* of the most recent spam posts to c.l.j.p. have
had an X-Trace indicating ..

X-Trace: posting.google.com ...

Is that correct? Is the X-trace the best indication of
where a post originates?

Sorry, I was hoping the GGA challenger might have clarified
on the original thread, but they have been conspicuous in
their absence, since I started posting links to examples..
