    Hello!

    Thank you for your work on this plugin! I’d like to use it with Contact Form 7.
    I disabled “block spam” and enabled “mark spam”, also “save spam” – but if i enable “simulate spam” I cannot submit the form at all…

    If i disable “simulate spam” it works…
    I expected to see the message in the Spam message part of your plugin…?

    Kind regards,
    Christian Holzmann

    Hi Christian.

    If you enable simulate spam, the form submission will be stopped on server-side. Therefore on the frontend it may appear, as if the form submission donn’t take place at all. As in this case you simulate to be a bot, you can see, how the form acts towards a bot.

    If you choose “save spam” you should see the spam messages in the inbox of the plugin as you mentioned. That holds even if your form submission in the frontend doesn’t seem to work at all. Furthermore if you disable “block spam”, the spam message should pass the full processing and appear in your final inbox (i.e. your mail account, or some kind of inventory)

    If that doesn’t work as expected, we can have a look on it together.

    Cheers, Matthias
