Hello,
Unfortunately Mailgun’s validation service doesn’t check if an email exists.
You can use the following alternative.
Create a file inside wp-content/mu-plugins (create this directory if it doesn’t exist) and place the following code:
<?php
add_filter( 'is_email', 'block_spammer_email' );
function block_spammer_email( $email ) {
if ( 'ojaisexau@gmailzdfsdfds.com' == $email ) {
return false;
}
return $email;
}
Also if you include a simple JavaScript on the comment form most of the spambots will fail.

This simple plugin adds JS code to the comment form which is completely transparent to your visitors. This will block 90% of spammers.
