Be careful with Akismet

Ruby Apps Typo

I removed the RBL entries to speed up the processing of commenting
and tested the spam protection with only Akismet. I posted three
test comments using a fake username and email address. The content
was one word ‘poker’.

Now every time I try to post a comment to my site or another Akismet
protected site my comment is blacklisted and eld as spam for
moderation. Even using my regular username and email address.

Be careful testing :slight_smile:

Well, Akismet is all but perfect, but IMHO it is the best anti spam
thing we’ve got for now, unless someone starts to code a decent antispam
for Typo.

At the very least, use a completely different dialup provider :slight_smile:
