    Form Bots using Actinic Contact Form?

    Hi there,

    It looks like bots are using my actinic contact form to send spam.

    I received returned emails from our server quite frequently, an example is attached at the bottom of this message.

    Can I stop this from happening? If not is there a way I can disable the contact form script in actinic so that it can no longer be posted to (I would then replace with my own php contact form/page).

    Kind Regards,

    - Matt

    Often with multiple lines and links included in them
    Very annoying!
