                       Blog::Spam
                    =====================

The Blog::Spam module, the associated driver, and the collection of
plugins allows you to offer an XML-RPC server which may be used to
test forum/blog comments for SPAM.

INSTALLATION
------------

To install this module type the following:

   perl Makefile.PL
   make
   make test
   make install


TESTING
-------

Run the blogspam script, then test submitting comments against it:

blogspam --verbose

cd ./tests
./driver



DEPENDENCIES
------------

This module requires several other modules and libraries which are listed
as dependencies in the generated Makefile.

USAGE
-----

Once installed launch "blogspam --verbose" which should attempt to listen
upon localhost:8888.

If that succeeds then you may "cd tests && ./driver".  This will run a series
of comment tests against the local daemon.


NOTES
-----

To run scheduled tasks you should add "blogspam --hourly" to your crontab,
with a suitable frequency.  Similarly add "blogspam --daily" and "blogspam --weekly".
