I got an email from a user saying he was banned for spamming. The log says, "Automatically banned by the Akismet system for spamming."

I see no criteria for what Akismet considers a spam message other than this setting: "Spam messages until ban". But again, what is a "spam message"?

Is there a way I can prevent this from happening?

Thanks!!

Disable the Askimet plugin and use something more reliable, see this thread for spam prevention plugins - http://community.mybb.com/thread-110224.html
