The advice given earlier in the thread , namely filter googlegroups as a
default and have a whitelist , seems the best approach. One hopes that a
valuable post which came through googlegroups will generate at least one
reply not posted through googlegroups so one will get to see that and
follow the references. But it's not guaranteed and it is possible that
one will have the replier in their killfile on other grounds.

By the way , comp.lang.forth  also has several genuine posters post through
googlegroups.
