  Due to a spam email on a comment stream that I stopped following some time ago, I have had to block all email from wordpress

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  What is the URL of the comment stream?

  Also, please note that you can unsubscribe from specific things at https://subscribe.wordpress.com/ there’s no need to block everything. :)

  I had already unsubscribed to this comment stream so there was no individual comment to unsubscribe from.

  I don’t see any spam there now, so it looks like they cleared it up.

  We do have a rather aggressive anti-spam system, but it holds spam comments for review for 15 days, and sometimes site owners are fooled by how positive (and vague “Great post, thanks!”) those really-spam comments are.

  At https://subscribe.wordpress.com/ you’ll find the comment threads you’re subscribe to under the Comments tab.

  You can simply unsubscribe from the specific thread, rather than block everything.
