I've been scanning my logs to check how well the comment-spam filter is working (answer: really well), and I come across this name, Kathy Gelpi, who if I remember right was a girl I knew back in high school. Apparently she searched for 'email' and tried to leave a comment, but the comment was defaulted to 'moderated' ... I think because there was no content. I did a quick check and she's connecting from AOL.
1. I need to put up my email address so it's easier to write me
2. If it was the Kathy I knew from high school - get in touch with me! I tried a few times in the past to find you and met with failure. That's saying something. If it wasn't you... oh well.
3. The spam filters are kicking ass. So far they are perfect.

This link has detailed instructions on how to implement the approval code. I am not using the tag, so the longer process involved (and detailed on that site) was necessary to get the hash to work. Good luck.
Posted by: Matt at January 4, 2005 10:03 AMWhat did you do about the "throttled with hash mismatch" issue? That's what I'm getting at the moment.
