• I recently installed CleanTalk Security (and AntiSpam, initial impression of both is very good).

    The first security malware scan complained about one file:
    /wp-content/plugins/bounce-handler-mailpoet/includes/pear/pear.php

    Well, we all know what pear is – but do you really have any need to include it in the plugin? It contains an “eval” statement, which the security scan is flagging as a critical issue in the heuristic part of its scan.

    If it’s not needed, would appreciate it being removed. Also the removal of WP-Cron jobs on deactivation.

    Last question: If I ever delete this plugin, will it leave data in the WP database?

    Thanks,

    Tim
