IP block not working?

Question

Even though I appear to be blocking an IP, they still are posting "comments". This IP address appears in the email sent to me when comment is posted. Maybe it's fake?

Thanks,

Roger

Answer 1

If the IP address appears in the email, maybe it's a username that just happened to look like an IP address? Q2A doesn't send out IP addresses in emails.

Comments

The IP address is in the email generated by Q2A to me showing comment. I have put IP in blocked list under spam, but the comment emails to me still keep coming. Odd, but I can't find the comments on the pages...

OK, this is a message through your Q2A feedback form, not a comment on a question or answer. I will check into applying IP blocks to the feedback form.

Many thanks! Not sure what use it is to spammers to give me feedback...
