XF 1.5 StopForumSpam question.

[fionix]

Almost everyday I get users for moderation because they are listed in the StopforumSpam database.

Here is an example: StopForumSpam matched (email: 3, ip: 46)

I don't understand this, where can I see what the e-mail address is and the IP ? is this information somewhere in the Xenforo DB or is it an external system?

Any information would be much appreciated.

The StopForumSpam database is maintained by http://www.stopforumspam.com/ - you can look up specific email addresses or IP addresses there.

Here is an example: StopForumSpam matched (email: 3, ip: 46)

In your example, this means the person trying to register has 3 separate entries for the email address he used and 46 different entries for the IP address he used all listed in the StopForumSpam database.
