 * Alright, I noticed that you can make certain words turn entire comments to spam
   automatically, but what about phrases?
 * Lately some moron has been spamming my site by writing comments that start with
   a link to a commercial site (always a different link) and then ending it with
   the exact line “Thanks for that awesome posting. It saved MUCH time “.
 * Can I somehow block all comments that contain that exact phrase?

 * Are you marking these as spam via the Akismet plugin?

 * No, I´m not marking anything at all, because the options-page doesn´t allow me
   to mark anything else than single words.
 * However, the options I have… they may be from Akismet but I´m unsure. How do 
   I check? I remember reading the name akismet somwhere on the optionspages.

 * With each new comment, you have options mark the comment to Allowed, Trash or
   Spam. Selecting Spam marks the comment as spam and submits a copy to the Akismet
   servers. If enough of these comments are marked as spam, Akismet will effectively
   blacklist the commentor.
