If you look at the cleanfeed code at

https://github.com/crooks/cleanfeed/blob/master/cleanfeed

you will notice that bad_groups isn't even looked at by cleanfeed and
the content of the bad_groups file reads:

######################### IMPORTANT! - READ CAREFULLY ########################
### You really want to use this file?  Isn't there a better answer than
### dropping the whole group?
######################### IMPORTANT! - READ CAREFULLY ########################

If you just want to drop articles /crossposted/ to a particular group
(i.e. articles are posted to more than one group and the group in
question is contained in the Newsgroups: header), you might want to add
the group to the low_xpost_groups array in cleanfeed.local and set
low_xpost_maxgroups to 1 in cleanfeed.local or take a look at the meow_*
variables to achieve a similar effect.
