Google groups act like a "web frontend" for nntp protocol (on which this
group is based). I suppose Google doesn't filter spam messages in its
interface. Try using a newsreader like Mozilla Thunderbird and point it
to a news server. In my case I use "news.aioe.org", it's free and it
doesn't have spam. The only minor problem is its retention policy (a
couple of months or so, but any newsreader can cache messages in your
computer the time you want)
