Subject: Spammer
This message board has been targetted by a spammer who has been submitting several messages a day for several months. I have not permitted any of the spam to appear.
The spammer must be a curious fellow. He is smart enough to submit the spam from many different IP addresses, which means that he is smart enough to hijack other people's machines to send the spam from. This means that solving the problem is not as simple as blocking a single offending IP address.
He is apparently _not_ smart enough to read what it says next to the "Submit" button: "All posts are moderated because of the spam problem."
Nothing appears on the board until I (or another moderator) approve it. No spam will appear on this board. Submitting it is a waste of time.
