MT-Blacklist 1.5
Comments: 7
Jay Allen’s very good MT-Blacklist just got a whole lot better. Version 1.5 introduces the Search & De-spam feature which can look back through a configurable number of comments and pings, identify suspicious material, delete it, and then rebuild the relevant pages.
Hooray, congratulations and bravo!
My blacklist is available, in case you’d like to add some more entries to your own. MT-Blacklist makes importing other lists easy.

Uhm… I was wondering why most of the words in your blacklist are Italian words. Are we Italians such bad spammers? >_>;;;

Wow! Then what happens when spammer start using Spanish? Will we got out of spanish fly, salsa and merengue?

Wow - your spammer domain list is SO different from mine (mine accumulated from incoming emails via KnowSpam). Imagine if all of these were centrally located, printed out and given to each government official with any power to do something about this? (officials rarely give consideration to anything unless it’s on paper)

Mary Beth, your spam domain list is probably different because you are talking about email spam while MT-Blacklist has to do with website comment spam. The two are very different and should not be confused.

Just DL’ed and installed the plugin (total time to do AND config, about 45 seconds). Brilliant piece of work, and nuked 98 comment spams I had been too lazy to kill in the last week or so. Jay is my hero.

Righto, I just thought it was interesting. I’m aiming at moving to MT and will install the plugin - the more spam-proofing the better!

The nice thing about the lists not being centralized is that it allows folks to use their trust networks to full effect. (“I trust Jeremy… so I’ll use his list… which is built from a group of lists by people he trusts, and so-on.)
