Here's what I don't understand: Gmail's spam filtering from everything I can tell is really good. Is the implication that they don't run their spam filters on posts to Google Groups? Wouldn't that hurt Google Groups' reputation for other spam filters? It seems like such an easy problem for them to solve.
They probably don't. Google has an pattern where teams building new products to get themselves promoted, and then abandoning them. Eventually when the abandoned product becomes too much of a liability, it's turned off. It's not surprising each product is a silo. Google services with ongoing maintenance are the minority.
