Hi Robert,
I've been trying to put that who situation out of my mind, frankly, but I still stand by my words. In fact, I've had a few people e-mail me even more links to people being unduly eaten by Akismet.

Unfortunately, most people won't realize they've had a problem until someone else points it out. Just today, one of my very legitimate comments was eaten by an overzealous spam filter and I had to contact the blogger and ask him to fish it out for me.

Also, for anyone who wants to read the entry in question, here's a direct link.



In fact, it seems that a few days after the dust up on the blog, Automattic began to (which is only visible to WP.com users at the moment).

P.S. You may also want to add another option to the poll -- "I don't know."

Sorry about the dust up. If I even had an inkling that things would go down the way they did I wouldn't have sent the email onto the person who reacted so badly. I won't be seeking her out in the future for any help.Poll was only set for a week and so adding any options is out of my hands, I agree that I don't know should have been an option.

I had a very legitimate comment eaten by the Akismet monster too...

Thanks Teli!
