Jambo uses _very_ basic techniques that filter out most the "stoopid"
spam bots out there, and until lately I have not gotten much spam get
through (about 5-6 per month). Today my inbox was filled with 25 spams
:(. So I'll be working on a system for Jambo to allow for easier
filtering of the email, and adding some more basic techniques.

I would caution about using Defensio until you verify, in their user
license agreement thing, that they allow you to send contact
form/generic data. I know Mollom does, and I'm working on a system to
leverage the mollom plugin to allow the generic filtering on any data
(which is why mollom rocks). But more basic filtering, like that done
in the spamchecker plugin, would be great to see.

Also, anyone willing to make Jambo use formui for it's form
generation/processing, would be awesome. Then we could include
multiple classes (and allow for addition of plugins) that would filter
Jambo's form stuff, and the user could select/activate any of the spam
filter classes/plugins they want active, like captcha, honey pot,
etc...
