I have a modified blocklist.php that I am working on. Right now it
reports to me in an email whenever a post is blocked -- and it accepts
multiple word phrases (a space in a blocklist term is ignored in the
original -- so "block:no spam" blocks every occurrence of 'no'). I am
holding off adding it to the cookbook because I want to add more
features to the email to make it easier to report for abuse (what URL
they posted to, a tail of the mail log?, the username they used, etc.)
but I sent my modification to PM for him to look at it a week or so
ago. It has been working beautifully for me. I can also share the
blocklist itself that I have. About 1800 entries worth blocking,
although you might want to weed through them.

Pandora looks sidelong at Schrödinger, nervous & fidgiting. In a
sudden move, Pandora runs over and knocks the lid off the box.
All Hell breaks loose -- explosions of color and light, creatures of
many sorts flying and leaping and crawling out of the box, objects,
elementals, elements....all manner of things...
In a few minutes the chaos subsides.
"Well, I guess it wasn't a cat after all..." said Schrödinger,
apparently unmoved. "It really *was* a whirling mass of probability."
Pandora still hasn't picked her jaw up off the floor.
