[cobalt-users] Fix for spammers and forms



I just wanted to let everyone know, that if they are running Matt's FormMail
script, that it is very easy for someone to use it for a spamming campaign.
We had this happen to a number of sites we host. The referrer check is very
easily bypassed, and I came across a patched version that appears to have
stopped this activity for now.

You can read about this hack and find the url for the fix at the bottom of
this page http://oliver.efri.hr/~crv/security/bugs/Others/fmail2.html .

Best Wishes,
Charlie
