Spam log says: 

"Existing session found" - it let you through because you had done
something else before, something that spammers usually don't do.
(It did catch a few attempted spam entries later in the day.)

I have combed through old tickets and kicked out a few more spam
ones. I wonder whether we should perhaps just remove everything that
is older than one year, closed or not, on the grounds that it is 
most likely not relevant any more - thus making the whole thing
a bit more responsive.

Also, any suggestions for other reports than the two existing ones?

Bye
Frederik
