How to Stop Comment Spam

April 11th, 2005 | 1 Comment | Posted in Blogs, Content Management Systems & WordPress

If you have created a blog here in class you may now be facing comment spam. WordPress has filters and options to protect your blog against comment spam (found in Options > Discussion), but I thought you may find this article on how to stop comment spam from SitePoint interesting.

While we’re on the subject of spam, Georgia had mentioned a service that offered disposable email accounts for use when you’re signing up for various services. I had never heard of this, but today I came across PookMail disposable mail.
