to me it is a long term solution.... alternatives are:
1) open up, and get spam 2) use some of the spam measures, like e.g. cool off period = 4 days. The most efficient measure is a manual creation, and if I count correctly we talk about less than 10 new users in a month. Please feel free to suggest alternatives that avoid spam, and do not burden our administrators (opening up for spam is a high burden on sysop as well as others). Rgds Jan I.
