1. Comment - Mail Goggles a lot of $(@)!# fun, but safety net has holes

   This shouldn't be an "option" - it should be mandatory. Recently, spammers have abused discussion forums by creating a landslide of multiple user accounts. Upon review of these registrations, the e-mail addresses were Gmail (although I read hotmail has been similarly used). If Google makes this math filter an option where a spammer can disable it, it will force admins of discussion forums to not accept account registrations with Gmail addresses. If indeed hotmail was similarly misused by spammers, people with flock to Yahoo mail. Google should do whatever it takes to shut these spammers out.
