Adaptavist announce Form Mail Plugin
If you've been plagued by spam after displaying your email address in Confluence, you'll love the new Form Mail plugin...
It's the same old story over and over again - you create a Confluence site and put your email address on there so that people can contact you. Next thing you know, your site has been rated 4+ by Google and fills the first page of Google search results – then the spammers arrive at your site...
Adaptavist have been plagued by spammers from around the world. Every day we have the fun task of batch deleting about 50 spam emails for various pills, email scams and bogus companies. It's time to fight back!
Our Form Mail plugin allows you to quickly and easily add an email form to Confluence pages (and news articles, etc) and because you can specify a user name (rather than an email address) in the macro parameters, the chances of spammers finding the actual email address are greatly reduced.
As an added bonus, people who travel a lot can now easily get in touch as they don't need access to their usual email client to send you messages - there's one built directly in to your page!
You can see a fine example of the plugin in use on our Contact Us page and you can get download and usage information from Atlassian's Confluence Extensions page.
