What to do when I post serious Usenet messages but some user/s hassle by subject changing my post to “SPAM”?

Question by interactive_net: What to do when I post serious Usenet messages but some user/s hassle by subject changing my post to “SPAM”?
I post on unmoderated Usenet groups. Not only the specific user/s change subject line, they also say “SPAM” only on message body. What can I say on the Usenet when this victimisation happens?

The Usenet Handbook: A User’s Guide to Netnews (Nutshell Handbooks)

USENET, also called Netnews, is the world’s largest discussion forum, encompassing the worldwide Internet and many other sites that aren’t formally connected to any network. USENET provides a forum for asking and answering technical questions, arguing politics, religion, and society, or discussing most scientific, artistic, or humanistic disciplines. It’s also a forum for distributing free software, as well as digitized pictures and sound. This book unlocks USENET for you. It’s not just a technical book, although it includes tutorials on the most popular newsreaders for UNIX and Windows (tin, nn, GNUS, and Trumpet). It also explains what goes on on the Net: where to look for information and what to do with it once you get it. And, it gives you an introduction into the culture: Net etiquette, the private language, and some of the history…including some of the more notable practical jokes.
