Description
Hi there,
I am using this module on my site and it is great - however, some anonymous posters are using obviously fake email addresses which are filling in my inboc of "failed to send"/"address does not exist" type of messages.
So is there a possbility to add a blacklist where if someone uses an email address matching it, even if they tick the "notify me" box, no email is sent?
(as a starter, I would add *@homr.com/net/org, *@work.com/net/org to the blacklist and then a few others as I notice them being abused..)

#1
Interesting idea. I don't think I would implement this because it's a very specific feature.
On the other hand, I think this module should be more extensible. What about a hook right before sending the mail that allowed other modules to get involved including saying "don't send this mail" ?
If you like that idea I'll change the purpose.

I would think it would be better to have some kind of separate module that implements hook_mail_alter and stops any mail going to bad addresses. This isn't something that is comment_notify specific.

I still feel this way - updating status.
