Thank you for the useful tip, Sandra. This has happened to me more than once and I had to actually write to the Group owner to remove me. A quick question, would this also work if the email the spammer is using is not a Gmail email id? Just want to cover all my bases.

  They could use any email address really, but mostly gmail addresses are being hit. 🙁
