  In the past couple of weeks, I have been getting a ridiculous amount of spam on my blog. Usually, it’s just random letters. I’ll get to my desk each morning and I’ll have 10+ of these messages, and it’s happening on a daily basis. I have been with WordPress for years and have not had this problem before. Thoughts?

  Do you mean spam as comments? If so, you’ll just have to mark them as spam and Askimet will eventually “learn” to send them straight to the spam dump so you won’t have to do it.

  That said, I’ve been getting a lot of crap from spam mails ending in .ru lately. Weird.
