The majority of my commenters (all 3 of them) are repeat offenders anyway so works a treat for me. I usually don't check past the first page of spam because most days I get a couple of hundred. Over 12000 and counting now. Quite a few spam comments were getting through recently so I switched Akismet to only allow comments from previous commenters and moderate others.

Previously on my personal blog I'd have to deal with only one spam a day, it's now more like 10-15 that get through and I have to mark as spam manually.

I was recently having problems with spam on one of my blogs. All the other were fine. I thought maybe the spam was beating akismet. But it turned out that I didn't have akismet activated! One click later, no more spam. Akismet is excellent!
