but can't explain why spam-o-matic is not ignoring this since the Spambot Stopper poster id=1

Edit again: I believe the problem is in the spam-o-matic product, and that is should not apply the rules if the post 'is_automated' is set at all. As it is, it only skips the rules if 'is_auotmated' is set to 'rss', but I see places in the vbulletin code that just set it to true. This probably doesn't cause a problem normally because it's rare for one of those situations to occur when the current user has fewer than 6 posts (or isn't an admin or mod). I've sent a PM to the spam-o-matic author, so hopefully we'll get it worked out one way or another.

Anyway, if you want to try a temporary fix, you could try going to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager, and find the section "Product: Spambot Stopper", and edit the "Post to Thread" plugin. Find this line:

      $dm->set_info('is_automated', 'sbs');

and change 'sbs' to 'rss'.
