The wiki used to relay through my personal linode (whichs runs bugs.koha-community.org) but as you can see something/one is trying to spam quite heavily. What they are doing is entering email addresses that aren't their own so innocent people get mail, they then mark as spam and bugs.koha-commun

Hi Massoud. I'm having a similar problem editing the wiki as well. I've registered, but have yet to receive a confirmation email (which is required before you can edit a page). There also seems to be a lot of 'spammy' new user account registrations on the "Recent changes' page as well. Is this
