    I installed both the WangGuard and WangGuard mailpoet connector as suggested to stop the fake subscribers. For some reason that led to an increase in fake subscriptions, many from addresses that end like this: fastmail.website, c.crazymail.website, a.yourmail.website. Before I installed the two WangGuard plugins, they were all yahoo accounts. My mailpoet is set for signup confirmation, which worked to prevent spammers up until two weeks ago. I checked the system myself and it does send the opt-in email both in the newsletter subscription and the “subscribe in comments”. Any suggestions, short of deleting them from my list as I see them?

  • Unfortunately, there are no other suggestions to make. Just the obvious, ignore the subscribers that haven’t confirmed their subscription.
