Well I have image verification enabled, but this made no difference. I also have admin validation required now. So the spam accounts can no longer post, but they can still create accounts. The main pain is the email problem. I'm getting loads of undeliverable messages from tucano.eukhost.com because they use fake email addresses. I'm just a bit worried that I'm going to get my knuckles rapped somewhere for continual attempts to send emails to these fake addresses (even though the emails are being sent automatically by phpbb).
I have added a mass delete hack to the admin panel so I can at least delete them all in one go.
