Hi Justin,
I'm glad to hear that you're aware of the situation The system
doesn't seem to be getting terribly abused yet but I will turn it off if it becomes a bigger issue I mostly wanted you and others to be aware of this spam vector that's now being used
I cobbled together CAPTCHA support for this feature - the CAPTCHA
stuff in Dada Mail is actually fairly encapsulated, so it wasn't the
biggest of deals
I'll put the changes in CVS soon and release a dev
version of Dada Mail, if you'd like to give it a shot
The only rub with the CAPTCHA stuff, is that you have to have both
the GD image library installed on the server, as well as the perl
CPAN module, called GD
pm
Neither of these things are things I can
bundle with the Dada Mail installation, but if you get those two
things installed, it shouldn't be much trouble to have the CAPTCHA
support stuff for the Send an Archive to Friend, feature
I think CAPTCHA is about the only suggestion I'd have as well I agree that it's not very friendly Even I have a hard time reading those skewed images sometimes! Having sound would be a nice touch
I agree, it would be a nice touch
Currently, I don't think there's
many sound libraries available for Perl - I may be wrong, though (And
who knows, maybe I'll do it myself!)
