I have Askimet set up to scan my site, but I am not sure if it is actually removing spam since I probably won't see the spam before it is removed, if it is removed.

My Askimet account has a diagram showing spam detection over time, but I am not sure what exactly it is doing, and wonder if it is being effective. It distinguishes "ham" and "spam" in the statistic report for my site, but I cannot find a definition of these terms at Askimet.

Of course JR does not have to explain Askimet, but if any other JR users are using Askimet, it would be good for me (and others) to know if and how it is working for you.

Thanks

Great - "ham" means something edible (for some), i.e. comments that passed the Askimet test, while "spam" is what we know it to be, despite the fact that it is openly sold Kyoto, the capital of high cuisine.

Thanks
