[pLog-svn] aha. comment spam

[Paul Westbrook]

Hello,
    Bad Behavior blocks comment spam at a lower level than the normal  
LifeType spam filters.  When it sees a comment spam, it will return a  
40x error, so I don't know how LifeType will be able to save the  
comment for moderation.

    But in general, I agree with you.  The plugins that block  
comments/trackbacks, should respect the global save/delete option, or  
offer a setting to override it locally.
