Description
Hi,
I've got httpbl set to check status on comment forms
and sure enough it's checking.
But it doesn't seem to stop blacklisted IP's posting.

Hi,
OK I see what's happening now.
httpl puts comments from blacklisted IP's in the moderation queue - it would be good to document this.
As I moderate all posts anyway this has no effect for me.
What I'd like is the option for httpl to reject posts entirely.
I just want a smaller moderation queue.
Maybe I'll find time to add this myself....

sorry - not paying enough attention.
I forgot this is running on a Drupal 5 site

Hi,
here's a patch that does what I want.
I moved the config check into the menu - so that I could re-use the _httpbl_check() function in hook_comment on validation.
Then just the extra config settings to make rejection optional.
