Looks like this only works for registration. Is there any way this service can be also used for preventing contact-form Spam? The email address or text could be the means to detect the Spammer, isn't it?

Hi,

> Is there any way this service can be also used for preventing contact-form Spam?

Presently no. Some extra code would need to be written.

I'm doubtful how useful it would be. I don't expect that contact form spammers would actually use legitimate email addresses, and the database at www.stopforumspam.com doesn't support querying text.

I think there are more suitable other solutions for contact form spam.

I create some patch, which add additional settings to protect site contact form.

I think we can check, at least, user's IP address and for some cases it will be enough.

But the patch is outdated, there is a new mechanism in module code, which allow adding protection to any form. Need to re-write patch with using it.
