Great work. Hopefully we can get rid of these damn spammers!!!

Thanks all. Hopefully it'll cut down the number of spammers who try and register on your sites. BTW, there were a couple of typos and a dupe on the spam list, since corrected, so now there's only 259989 email address domains on the spam list. Oh no! :eek:

I can see a false entry from the start, @bellsouth.net is what Bellsouth telco gives to all their highspeed and dialup subscribers. Not only that, but you've also cut off aol customers also. And thats just the first two I looked for.

I think you're throwing out the baby with the bathwater on this one.

It's a great idea, But I would rather use a confirmed list of spam addresses.

Every entry on the spam list came from my personal list or an online source where the domain was listed because spam was sent from that domain. Even paid service providers get customers who send spam, but there is no guarantee that every entry on the list is a true spam domain. The neat thing here is that if you don't want to block a domain on the list, simply remove it from the list.

mm nice work...

but hotmail.com?

is consider a spam?

Yeah, I noticed that Yahoo.com and gmail.com also are in the list.

Thanks M8 I have been having a horrible time they keep coming and coming I block and they still come back I hope this will be the answer to this problem
Thanks man!!

are there any functions to this in admin???

There needs to be a more refined list for this. As it is, it would be preventing the registration of a whole lot of legitimate people.

Calorie: Can you answer why in the world Hotmail.com, Yahoo.com, Gmail.com and AOL.com are on that list?

*Uninstalls until a better list is out.

Every entry on the spam list came from my personal list or an online source where the domain was listed because spam was sent from that domain. Personally I've had spammers post garbage using aol.com, gmail.com, hotmail.com, and yahoo.com email addresses, among others, but there is no guarantee that every entry on the list is a true spam domain. The neat thing here is that if you don't want to block a domain on the list, simply remove it from the list. It's up to you as to what you want to block.
