If you are running Thunderbird, you can set up filters on keywords like
gucci, fashion, sale etc in the headers. You need about a dozen to
filter and delete all spam and takes about 10 minutes.

Rarely see any spam at all in the groups here...

If you look closely at the spam you will see that it has
a number of attributes to its header and container
that normal usenet postings do not have.

Just filtering on those headings and subsequent lists takes
care of 95%. Then you have to blacklist per word or combination
of words.

All of this more or less require that you run your own
news server. I do; leafnode can be recommended. It runs
right here on this laptop.

The test for such filtering is that alt.tasteless becomes
readable again.

Just as having the primary mailserver ip6-only, and forcing
the v4 laggards onto a secondary server. That trick works
even better than greylisting. It seems the spammer software
in current use chokes on aaaa records when there is no
ipv6 available directly.
