    Hi, There actually is a secret/hidden token on the form. My hope was to prevent spam without needed a captcha. I have thought about it as an additional option though. Are you receiving spam messages through the form? If so I would definitely be interested. Adding a captcha is not a huge deal, but if the current system is working that is even better! Thank you for the feedback.

    Hi Jason,
    Thank you for your answer. Yes, I have 2-3 spam mails with the form every day. I saw your hidden token in the plugin Editor ??

    I agree, adding captcha, read “reCAPTCHA”, would be very nice… I have a online form for almost 3 years… and not a single spam message! In my case it was a formmail altered version where I added the reCAPTCHA and since then no more problems their.

    Could not be enable by default, but if needed…

    ah, what a bummer – spammers are infuriating. I’ll put on the list some captcha options.

    I’d like to also suggest reCAPTCHA. But on a positive note, it works great. The name SimpleSecure sounds so familiar. I remember a CGI script many years ago called Simple Secure. It was a modified version of Matt Wright’s Formmail, but it allowed the messages sent through the form to be encrypted with PGP similar to the way this one seems to work.

    Hehe, yea I wrote the original SimpleSecure in Perl. This is basically a re-boot of that script!

    Any news? the last update was a year ago, but the last spam msg 6 months..

    @ Daniel Stahl
    I assume you are addressing Jason?
    I have not seen any response to my question Posted 1 month ago ??
    Out of necessity I found another solution to my spam problem not requiring the SimpleSecure plug-in.

    I just added this in version 0.0.6 – using google’s free reCAPTCHA service. You can find it in the Settings page for SimpleSecure. Adding your reCAPTCHA Site Key and Site Secret will enable reCAPTCHA on your forms.
