One more time: filter GG posts. I see *no* spam from this server.
One rule. No spam.

Seems like a simple method to deny this spammer:
gabi40030@googlemail.com
" deny gabi*@googlemail.com " and that's about it.
Yoo hooo, anybody minding the store? ;-)

As Blinky has pointed out many times, the best bet is to use an external
filtering program to drop all messages from googlegroups.com. The cost
in legitimate messages that are dropped is very small.
I have been using NewsProxy v1.2.4 for about a week and have seen no
spam. Messages from non spammers usually show up as quoted material in
other postings.
