Akismet kills all comments / which spam plugin to use?

Oh that's cool... That is actually good enough in my
opinion, a  
backport to 2.x seems like a waste of your time, time that
could be  
spent on 2.x -> 3.0 migration tools 


Thanks

While I applaud the 3.0 effort, 2.x should not be dismissed
and  
deemed "a waste of time" (even as I currently
port my private plugins  
to the 3.0 code).

Apple's Weblog Server will be 2.2x for sometime to come I
suspect,  
and then there will be the large contingency of users not
willing to  
"adopt the enterprise thinking in 3.0" with DB
administration and new  
Java technologies evolving beyond the use of POJOs.

To that end, I hope that David and others will not begin
thinking of  
2.x maintenance, improvement, and extension as "a
waste of time." I  
know I will continue to support 2.x whenever possible.

And in trying to remain, "on topic," if only a
little bit, have you  
tried the SCode plugin for comment moderation? SCode has
effectively  
killed comment spam on my multiple blojsom-on-Linux
installs. SCode  
has some server configuration items to consider, e.g., Java
headless  
support, Linux graphic library support, and flaky Mac OS X
server  
support (a limitation of the OS, not the plugin), all of
which might  
be difficult or not possible depending on your host. I
suspect  
however, if you are running blojsom, you have a host that is
either a  
VPS, dedicated server, or machine that is configurable as
you see  
fit. Consider looking at SCode if Akismet is not working
"as  
advertised."

Regards,
Tim

Thanks for this tip, I do run my own server and will give
SCode a try.
