I just found a story in my submission queue that was nothing but a spam attempt, full of links that SpamX catches in comments.

Is this a new attempt to get around SpamX?

Well, that's exactly what the submission queues are for - to catch unwanted submissions. And once they realise their posts are not going to appear on the site, they'll stop posting. Until then it can be a minor annoyance, though.

In config.php:
$_CONF['commentsloginrequired'] = 1;

bye, Dirk
