Hello,
I provide a website hosting service ( http://jepose.com ) and my problem is that everyday spammers try to create websites on my system , and use them to forward people to their ringtones, viagra, etc. sites.

These spammers use "spamgourmet" addresses...
You want to fight spammers but your system helps the spammers :(

Now i will have to refuse people who subscribe using spamgourmet addresses. (unless you can tell me how to make difference between honest people and spammers?)

Hello,

We'll be glad to help you curve the problem. BTW, we also suffer from spammers attempting to create accounts here. We modified the default PHP so that their scripts fail, and very few spammers actually go through (they have to take the time to register in person instead of launching a script at us). And of course, they get kicked out at the first offense.

Your profile has an email address that I suspect has a typo (smapgourmet?). So, please send me a private message with your email address (and your AIM screen name if you have one) so we can solve this issue. We should be able to find a way.

Je parle fran?ais, ?a simplifiera peut-?tre les choses pour vous.
