Wordpress and spam through WP Contact Form plugin
The Wordpress Contact Form plug-in is something you can’t live without. It allows the administrator, you, to receive emails from users and visitors. The problem is that I keep on receiving spam through that form and, I am afraid, there could be a security hole allowing spammers to send unsolicited emails through it.
Is there a way to fix this useful plugin or does exist an alternative one?

I found this and I want to study it:
Secure Form Mailer Plugin For Wordpress

What I don’t like is the verification code needed to be typed by the commenter if she wants the comment to be sent.

I just Installed the luxurious Secure Form Mailer Plugin by Dagon Design. So far I love it.

I see that this Plug-in, as the WP Contact form one, puts its specific CSS file in the header of EVERY page: why is it so if it is needed only in the CONTACT one?

Going on in testing Secure Form Mailer plugin:
1. Email received by the admin are from “Unknonw Sender”.
2. Translations?
