Thanks I have had a look at this and the option “anyone can register” is not there. Whoever is doing this posts in my name so it’s not a comment that I can identify. I think somehow they have aquired my ID and I would like to change that if possible.

I have done further investigation and found how to change the wordpress post email address and have regenerated it so I hope this will stop the spam. We will see.
Link to how to do it is here you just select the email and take the option to regenerate then copy the new address and replace the one in your contacts in your email client.: https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-email/ -
