In my opinion the URL, email, Name used and IP address are one of the factors Akismet are blocking. Once one of these are marked by Akismet - it's hard to get back to track.

Somtimes it would appear to be too aggresive - but then again that's exactly why I think comments should be moderated. I have been using aksimet since I started my blog and haven't encountered any major problems to it. So hope you sort yours out, eventually.

For some reason I get a lot of messages with random strings of numbers and letters that have no meaning whatsoever. I'm not really sure why someone would send out something like that. The only solution I've come across is taking the time to check the spam folder for quality comments that have been sent there. Let us know if you come upon a solution. Hey Kristi,
