[WP Plugin] Geek Mail Blacklist

WordPress sites administrators often encounter a problem - zombie or fake users register to your site using fake Emails. The emails they use often strictly follow the Email format so it's hard for our program to judge if they are valid or not. Although we can prevent these users from really using our sites by sending activation Email, still they are a waste of database space and make it harder to manage members. As a result, an Email blacklist is needed to filter these annoying registrations.


Geek Mail Blacklist is a plugin which can block users with certain emails from registering to your WordPress site by adding blacklist rules. What's more, it supports regular expression rules which makes it more powerful to fit all kinds of situations. And it is COMPLETELY FREE!

How to use

Installation

Just like other WordPress plugins, there are two ways to install - either install directly from your dashboard 'Plugins' page or download the package and extract it to wp-content/plugins and then activate it in your dashboard.

Settings

The settings are pretty simple. As the picture shows below:


     


     
We just need to click 'Enable Blacklist' button on the top of the page. And when the 'Blacklist Enabled' box turns green with 'YES' on it, the blacklist function is ready to go!

The rules can be added from the top input box by clicking the 'Add' button. Please add one rule at a time.

Regular expression rules are supported. Please wrap your regular expression rules with '/'. Without '/', the plugin will regard it as a full match rule. Here are some examples:

RuleDescription
/.*@abc.com/All Emails with the domain abc.com will be blocked.
test1@abc.comOnly test1@abc.com will be blocked.
/.*box@abc.com/ Emails like aabox@abc.com, bbbox@abc.com will be blocked.
abox@abc.comOnly abox@abc.com will be blocked.
