Re: spam protection for user notes

Its an idea.. Instead of the captcha image, we can use a similar system that is used in the php.net e-mails. When a note is submited, we send an e-mail, and only when the user clicks on the link, his note is accepted. Nuno ----- Original Message -----

I realise that. So why don't we set it so you have to provide a valid email to be able to submit a note? M Sean Coates wrote:

Another option (in the short-term) is to simply required a valid email address (most of the spam seems to come from the default 'Bob@osu1.php.net' or 'php-general@lists.php.net').

Haven't checked the code recently, but I'm pretty sure a blank name results in php-general@lists.php.net and a name with no domain ("Bob") gets osu1 appended ("Bob@osu1.php.net"). S
