Cannot add spam data for user

I get an error message (error in IP address and email address) when I try adding spam data for a user on my forum:

Username: AliceMonroe
IP: 47.91.147.6
Email: bropgi68955@yahoo.com

Any suggestions?

Re: Cannot add spam data for user

I tried submitted it as you show it and do not get any error.

Are you sure you entered it correctly,  for example , if you have the e-mail addres in the
wrong field, it would  give that kind of error.

Try it again

That is odd -  I copied and pasted it from my phpbb and just tried again without any evidence but still get an error about the ip address and email

Re: Cannot add spam data for user

I don't know,  actually the way you show it, and I copied , is wrong,...
The user name is the first filed,...

Spammer username *     
Spammer email address *     
Spammer IP address *     
Your API key *     
     
Evidence

So it should be :

AliceMonroe
bropgi68955@yahoo.com
47.91.147.6

So based on the way you are showing it, :

RWAP>>>
Username: AliceMonroe
IP: 47.91.147.6
Email: bropgi68955@yahoo.com

Which is what makes me think you are putting the IP, in the e-mail field
and the E-mail in the IP field.
-----
Maybe try using code boxes here,... these are "code boxes",

[code]Copy paste code between the boxes[/code]

See http://www.stopforumspam.com/forum/help.php#bbcode for more details.
Any way copy paste it into code boxes, exactly like you are on the submission form,..
If you are doing this :

 Username: AliceMonroe
IP: 47.91.147.6
Email: bropgi68955@yahoo.com

It would cause a error as well,.... the words, Username, IP, and E-mail,...should not be included in the
field.
Just the info , like this :

AliceMonroe
bropgi68955@yahoo.com
47.91.147.6

Ah darn it - I have completed the form several times in the past and yet never spotted that (you were correct) the email and IP fields were the wrong way around!

Oh well - at least it was nothing major (phew)
