Implemented a blacklist for blog comment spam //at 02:12 //by abe
from the the-last-straw dept.
Just killed all the remaining comment spams (I hope) and implemented a simple regexp based blacklist which should get most medicaments, potence pills, casinos, lotteries and other frequently posted junk. I hope, it does not hit too many valid posts. If you have problems posting comments, feel free to contact me by e-mail or on IRC.
In other news, I installed the blosxom plugin comments_recent and adapted the mail feature of writeback notify to my (in the meanwhile heavily modified)
instance of the comments plugin v0.6. I also made it symlink-safe
for use with multcat.
