Franz,

have you installed the trackback.module patch at

http://drupal.org/node/16690

This seems to fix a lot of problems I've had with spam.

Regards, Djun

Hello,

my Problem lives on 4.5.2, but as I'm locally studying 4.6 the spam module seems to be similar, so the question keeps the same:

I have the trackback module running and it works seemingly very well (http://amazonas.the-dot.de/). The trackback entries are listed on my site in the "latest comments" block (Neueste Kommentare, german). I have the spam module installed and configered all to catch spam on comments to unpublish it automatically.

Repeatedly I got trackback spam. The spam module collects all the data in its list. I thought at first I have to train it to work. But now it shows an impressive statistic, but I still have to kill the *trackback comments* manually! The e-mail notification does not work also.

Just checked: On "normal comments", entered directly, the filter and e-mail-notification works. The "spam matching" (or manual switched) entries really get into the spam data list, the url-blacklist is updated, but there is no visible filtering.

Any ideas what to look for to get it filtering (unpublish) with trackbacks as well?

Thank you Franz

This is a known issue. Trackbacks are not passed trough spam modulewhen added, so it cannot be marked as spam.

You could (hire someone to) code this, though.
