I have blocked forum access for users with email addresses ending with @mail.ru. Unfortunately, this step was necessary to prevent the large amount of spam and dummy registrations originating from mail.ru addresses reaching our board. Although spam is not publicly visible at TBV, since all new registrations are moderated, I still need to review every post and every registration. I haven't blocked email domains before, except for some particularly notorious ones in China, but I don't see any alternative in this case, since spam from mail.ru has increased drastically.
