You wrote:Note we do have a SURBL package in PEAR so it's only a matter of implementing that into services_trackback, so you won't have to do it from scratches ;-)I still received two poker spam submissions tonight. One just moments ago.Seems I cannot come around implementing a SURBL check, which should be much more efficient. I plan to release a new version of Services_Trackback that weekend, which will be able to handle spam detection automatically. I'll switch the PEARWeb stuff as soon as this release is out and ask Martin to clean up the DB afterwards again.
