Re: spam

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

What I have been doing is forcing the user to reactivate their account. I find that is more useful than resetting their password as the user has control of the process. It also means that if the spammer has compromised the users email and has access to the reactivation email, then when they next post it requires approval via a moderator - I've caught two of these already.

I don't feel that phpbb has been compromised - it's more a case of user email accounts being compromised, or users using easy-to-guess passwords
