Yahoo's Spam-Catching Filter Posted by aure\_enteluva July 13, 2006 - 15:02:08 Topic ID# 7292
Hey guys,

Yahoo has implemented a new feature that I somehow just found out
about. If it suspects a post is spam it puts it in a quarantine filter
that the group moderators than have to come along and tell it to send
to the group. It does not email said group moderators to let them know
spam is there, and as I said I only just became aware of this feature
since I usually do not come to the group site anyway.

So there are several messages that I have just sent to this group. I
apologize for the delay, and if any of them have been reposted by
their authors.

I have also turned off this feature. Elliska and Naresha approve
anyone looking to join this group, so I doubt we'll have much problems
with spam anyway, and if we ever do I will moderate that particular
member. No sense punishing the whole group.

Sounds like they've extended their moderation
feature - where you have to approve EVERY post
that goes in. It's very annoying that they don't
tell you there's something there. With the
moderation feature, you get notified of a post
needing approval. But as you said, we approve all
members, so we shouldn't have the hassle.
