I've done heaps over the past few weeks to try and curtail spam. I've banned a whole lot of email addresses, including a blanket ban on some countries' addresses (Russia, for instance).
Some still get through, but NTRabbit or I quickly delete the posts, then I delete the user and ban the email address or domain.
The new version of the phpBB software, due out soon, contains a whole raft of new features, including better spam control.
Hopefully this will also help.
Cheers,
Oliver
