Private Messages Spam
Hi,
as already mentioned in http://astaro.org/showpost.php?p=90160&postcount=4 there are some suspicious activities in this board.
Today I received the following spam message:
Obviously, this user named "einstein" has 0 posts...
Regards,
Bastian

no you turn on moderation of posts of new users..aka users are required to post something..fi they don't within say..7 days their accounts get locked/deleted/banned..whatever...between stop forum spam, akismet and the moderation we had one..maybe two spammers sneak through in over 3 years..
