It does have a link to the spam center on the dashboard, at the bottom of the activity box.

Here’s something I’d like to see clarified. Last night, after a couple of flawless days of use, Akismet caught its first false positive on my blog. But was it really a false positive? The comment was actually in violation of my old restrictive anti-spam rules — I hadn’t yet removed them, though I have now. Does Akismet also catch spam that passes its own criteria but violates the blog’s local moderation rules?

Sure that shouldn’t be a problem.

Matt, as far as I’ve seen, the current version number of the plugin isn’t displayed anywhere at this moment. It seems a bit silly to have to download the plugin every couple of days to see if it’s been updated, so could you put the current version number somewhere near the download link? That would help a lot!

Cool tool,

but why don’t you put the Spam-Inbox directy as an sub-option of the dashboard? Now I have always to click on “manage” to see it there’s new spam. Or at least you could give a small info in the info-Box in the Dashboar with a link for the spam management, similar to that how you do it with comment moderation.

Just wanted to say I’ve been using it since last night and, while I hope I’m not speaking too soon, my completely-out-of-control spam problem seems completely solved. Thanks!

Er, no, most bloggers are not making $500 per month. Most bloggers use the numeral 4 to indicate the word “for.” I myself would be losing money on my blogs if I paid for hosting, which I don’t.

The corporate level sounds a bit low–aren’t most bloggers making that much per month?

Justin, I don’t think that’d be a problem. It sounds like you’re both under the personal license anyway, and there would be no reason for her ever to have her own WP.com account.
