On v6.15 I was using the Stop Forum Spam plugin and after upgrading to 1.81 I switched to using the integrated SFS feature. Now what seems strange is that in the past (6.15 + plugin) I saw several dozens of denied spam registrations in the sfs_log.php every day. After switching to the integrated one I don't see a single entry in the ACP > Tools and Maintenance -> Spam Log. I believe I have enabled it properly (checking is enabled, Log StopForumSpam blocks=YES)
So is it really working? How to check?

If you're using 1.8.0 (SFS is broken in it), make sure to upgrade to 1.8.1. Also, check if logging is enabled in settings.

What are you checking and what's your confidence? Forum URL?

I just registered and have been considered a spammer, can you check the log? If I'm there (E-mail from SFS database starting on b), it means that you either have no spambot registration or they're blocked by other anti-spam measures beforehand.
