Every comment just going to trash but I didn’t ask you to do that
-
Every comment just hello, and thank you for your help. Every comment I get goes immediately to trash. I did not set things up this way. It seems that some kind of blacklist checker is throwing the comments into trash, even though they pass the a Akismet spam test. This is highly annoying, as I want people to be able to see their comments right away. Can you help? Please and thank you.

Hi there,
If there are no rules in the comment blacklist that could be responsible for comments ending up in the trash, then it could be a case of Akismet catching the comments in error. It’s worth reaching out to Akismet support and querying this directly with them:

Hi folks, hope you don’t mind me adding to this conversation:
Akismet does not trash comments. If Akismet catches a comment, it will go to your site’s Spam folder.
Although Akismet is generally very good about recognizing spam and will put spam in the spam folder, here are some resources that you will want to read to educate yourself to recognize those spam comments that may make it into your regular comments:
