We've gotten a fair bit of spam from a couple gmail addresses on the newsgroups: yxs034@gmail.com and yxs036@gmail.com. Can we block this address from the mailing lists/newsgroups? Or do we need to contact giganews/google to do this?
I've see 038 also, now.
Summary: Please ban yxs034@gmail.com and ysx035@gmail.com from the newsgroups → Please ban yxs{034,036,038}@gmail.com from the newsgroups
Neither Giganews nor Google will ban individual users. :( We've tried before.  Best we can do is cancel the messages after the fact and that only works on Giganews (and only if they posted via Giganews).

I can drop any mail from those addresses on the list gateway though, so their messages won't make it to the mailing list version, which I've just done.
