Maybe throttling?
You know - if one IP:
1. sends a lot of comments in one day and
2. IP is not in a white list and
3. these comments are identical and
4. there is a short period between comment posts
these comments are grouped together with some flag and become hidden
until somebody from php-notes ML either approves or deletes them.

Yep.
