Little Help on some new settings - Akismet
Using Jamroom
Dazed:
3. This is something Brian just added for akismet because the bio was not included originally. I was running some tests on it and I did not get the emails. If I adde http://www.cnn.com to a blog I would get the email. If I entered that on a bio, nothing.

So there are 2 different things here:
1) User Probation - this is what sends the email for an offsite URL. It is not related to Akismet (spam checking service)
2) Akismet spam checking service - this checks fields for spam.
Right now the profile fields go through number #2 only, since #1 is only active for items that get CREATED - i.e. a comment entry, a new blog post, etc. Since the profile bio is an UPDATE to an existing item it just gets spam checked via Akismet.
