The Feedback module is a nice idea, badly coded.
As it is done now, The Feedback module is an open door to use it as a
sand box to test not only spam, but any kind of code injection.
Each time that a new exploit (to attack PHP, database, Drupal, etc.)
gets known, you will have at your site an open door ready to test it.
It would be much more secure if it had some kind of Captcha protecting
it... but then again, captchas have problems of their own!
