"Enough is enough, I can't stands no more"

After my final postin' last evening, I found two more comment SPAMs and downloaded and installed MT-Blacklist. Now, already today I have been attacked by another comment SPAMMER that was not caught by such security. However, I am not gonna slam the plugin, because, if nothing else, it allowed me to delete the comment without havin' to rebuild my whole site. I used to have to do that several times a day every time I discovered some damn comment SPAM just to make sure it was gone.

A couple of questions I have are:

  1. How can I submit the information of such comment to the master list? and
  2. Does this mean I have to update my list everyday so as to stop this crap?

I installed it last week and have yet to have a single spam comment on either of the blogs. First question, did you copy over the latest .txt file for stopping spam? I had to do that seperately from the rest of the installation.

I know you can add the new spammer to the mix, but since I haven't used it yet in that capacity, I haven't yet had to do so. It might be an automatic procedure.
