It works fine for me…
Sorry you are having trouble. That means Akismet thought it was spam.
I have no other reports of problems. Were you just testing a message yourself? What was the message you typed in?
Do you get any email from your form with Akismet enabled?
The next version will have a setting to disable akismet for the contact form if you need to.
New in 2.9.3
You can turn off Akismet for the form in the form advanced settings.
= 2.9.3 =
– (20 Sep 2010) – Added new setting so Akismet can now be set to off for the forms. The new setting is individual to each form.
– Improved Akismet spam check feature, the whole message is checked including all extra fields instead of just message field.
– Added new email footer message for “Akismet Spam Prevention: passed”.
– Added more date format types for the calendar date setting.
