Overflowing spam catcher

I use Akismet as a spam-catcher. On the whole it’s good, but it has one annoying deficiency — you can only review the 150 most recent suspected spam. This time around, however, I had 766 suspected spam. If you had a valid comment in the 616 I couldn’t review, I’m sorry. Please be so kind as to resubmit it.

Thanks,

CAM

EDIT: The attack continues. Today I deleted 245 real or imagined spam. A couple of days ago it was 135, all real.
