    Hi, thank you for the great plug-in!

    I have noticed that this plug-in does not block the sub-domain email address format. I’m not sure how he gets around with sub-domain email address but this is what I see on my site.
    I have added oprogressi.com on the black list but it does not block below email addresses.

    @arlen.oprogressi.com
    @betterley.oprogressi.com
    @bodon.oprogressi.com
    @boh.oprogressi.com
    …

    Is this something can be added on future release?

    Did you add oprogressi.com or @oprogressi.com ?

    Edited: Never mind, the reason it’s not working is I only let you use @domain.com and not just anything, mostly because it ends badly.

    Lemme see what I can do for wildcards.

    Okay, status: Maybe.

    Since this uses the WP comment blacklist, it’s really messy to include partials like that. :/

    Answer: Not at this time.

    Two problems, one of which is that the regex got really expensive really fast and slowed my test site down. The other is that for the same reason I didn’t block things without @ in them, it’s too easy to get innocents trapped.

    I’ll keep poking to see if I can come up with a better solution, but no promises.
