Ghost sign up and spam?

Hey everyone,

This is my blocked email domains list so far:

[
  "txt.att.net", 
  "tmomail.net",
  "vtext.com",
  "mymetropcs.com",
  "msg.telus.com",
  "pcs.rogers.com",
  "fido.ca",
  "txt.freedommobile.ca",
  "sms.sasktel.com",
  "txt.bell.ca",
  "email.uscc.net"
]

I just added email.uscc.net today, as I am closely watching over my instance logs. I am sharing the list so that we can help each other keep an up to date blocked list of spammy domains.

I am also looking at Ghost’s commits and seems that two new functionalities are being cooked:

  • A user facing setting to allow publishers to update/add the list of blocked email domains directly from Ghost admin. This will most likely be added in the next release this week.
  • A functionality to enable captcha as part of our sign up flows.

Really exciting developments, and looking forward to start using these against the spammy traffic.
