Thanks ewonline. You stopped using the user accounts feature? Do you mean you no longer accept registrations?
I've added pookmail.com to my ever increasing list of unacceptable emails - thank you! Do you suggest any others? So far, I have:
[size=x-small]yahoo.com$|gmail.com$|hotmail.com$|yahoo.ca$|ebay.com$|aol.net$
|msn.com$|yahoo.ie$|yahoo.de$|yahoo.ru$|yahoo.net$|gigantegassoso.info$
|lacanapa.info$|thegrandwazoo.it$|sopracultura.it$|ninsole.it$
|sveverona.it$|sofismusica.it$|misterhyde.it$|singlenet.it$
|poseidonbeach.it$|orienteeringweek.it$|vbgallery.it$
|spegnilatv.it$|nefroar.it$|vhr.it$|pookmail.com$[/size]
I may not get any registrations...

but I will re-evaluate the list at a later time. Right now, I want to be picky.
I was planning to add the CAPTCHA but not sure if it's over my head. Will do a search and see if I can manage.

I've actually never had any spammer problems while I was using the user accounts feature in XOOPS (stopped 1-2months ago), though I did do those things above. I also blocked many disposable email services like pookmail.com.
If your getting a lot of robots spamming your site, it may be worthwhile to put in a CAPTCHA (anti-robotic image).
