BTW, did the EM (and ER) server go through a rough patch last evening? I had to log off because both sites were extremely slow...
Yes: both sites were bottlenecked by a grumpy router (so I was told by the hosting/tech admin). They were both responding slowly or timing out.

Adam: we do have PM restrictions for new users.

Unfortunately, the visitor messages don't have any similar controls in the admin options. They're either on for everyone, or off for everyone. vBulletin addresses more and more spam related issues in each upgrade, so it's no doubt on their radar.
