   Automated comment moderation is definately a plus to have with blogs. I run several blogs and I find it easier to let the filters grab alot of the spammy stuff like people stuffing links into a comment field and not really adding much to the discussion. Obvious stuff. However being able to approve comments through emails coming over can be a big plus for those of us that are busy and I’d agree with you that this definately is a good thing.

   LOL, you got a comment on a post from 2004. However, I’d like to point something out.

   I envision checking my blog once a day (when I post or make changes) to weed through the comments and authorize the ones I think are fit.

   Funny, that is pretty much how fighting comment spam has come to be. Good eyesight there Mark.

     Sometimes posts from 2004 carry more weight than posts from 2008 Jeff. Believe it or not I came across this post looking for information about fighting spam on my blog and thought it to still be relevant and to add my 2 cents to this older discussion. Thanks to Mark for finding my post relevant. Take care.
