Problem with Arch Contact

I'm using the arch contact module on one of my website.

Unfortunately, some idiot has found my website and keeps sending me links to porn sites.
There is nothing in ArchContact to block an IP or an email address.

Anyone know how else i can do it? And I assume I get his IP from the mail header? But I'm not sure because isn't the IP that will be sent, my hosts IP?

1) You can ban him, i.e. create a group "Banned", and set it up so the user has no access to any module. Then move him to this group. He can login, but since he is not in the "Registered User" group anymore, he cannot post anything anymore.

2) You can use Protector to ban his IP

He's not a registered user. There are no registered users on my site. The register/login block is disabled. I access the site for editing using a direct link to the back door

I just installed AM Contact 0.08 with the captcha, so hopefully that will get rid of him

If you have the IP, use Protector.

You can also use Liase with Captcha, this way you can avoid automatic messages.
