The maintainer of the website that I've built for someone else, has just asked me this question:

"Where can I see the comments that Mollom marks as spam? I'm used to Akismet in Wordpress and I assumed that Mollom would provide same service"

And I'm pretty puzzled about this as well. How come Mollom does not provide an interface with a list of comments that it thought were spam? What if there are some legitimate comments that happened to be marked as "spam" and need to get reviewed by the moderators and get published?

I'd like to know this as well.

Even if you can't see them on the Mollom website, isn't there some way that they could be stored by this module if Mollom says they're spam?

I would like to know this too - actually I'm still on the Drupal 5 version since the site concerned is running under Drupal 5. After all Mollom gives me the option if a spam gets past the filter to "delete the spam and report it to Mollom" - would it not make sense to have the possibility to "accept the comment (or whatever) and report to Mollom" - either way you would be helping to improve the quality. Also I'm concerned that people may be getting kicked off and I don't know anything about it.

There is no "easy" way to view them. You can review the Mollom messages in your dblog reports (D6: admin/reports/dblog). You'll find watchdog messages for messages that were determined to be spam and not allowed to proceed to a CAPTCHA.
