Can trackbacks on the edit page where the "5 most recent pings" are recorded be configured to take us to the appropriat post rather than as a link to the site of the spammer. That way, we could do our own blacklist perhaps on our sites based on the ping and/or delete the ping from the post in question.

Posted by caltechgirl at June 14, 2006 07:18 PMgreat idea, however, my trackback emails are not reaching me (gmroper@gmroper.mu.nu) for some reason I will look in "old" posts for dates and see if I can find them. Thanks again...

Hang on a couple more weeks and you'll have it all, baby! 
And of course, the version of Minx we'll be using initially, Minx/MT, is fully compatible with Movable Type, so the minute I get the new trackback view working you can start using just that bit, even if the rest of Minx isn't ready yet.
