Exclude certain user and or user roles from the spam filter

Thanks for submitting this idea @Folkert Ziggo! Not great at all that very active users are caught by the spam filter. One question based on your idea: if you could choose which came first, would you prefer to exclude a list users you specify, or all users with a particular custom user role?

Glad to see the idea went from NEW → OPEN ! 

if you could choose which came first, would you prefer to exclude a list users you specify, or all users with a particular custom user role?

In this case i would rather see that a particular custom user role can be excluded from the filter. In my opinion that should provide more control and access than a list of specified users.

Great idea!

Hey @Folkert Ziggo @stanislav.fedoseev @Thomas @Jurgen @ZapierSteph @tom.shaddock 

We’ve added an option to exclude a custom user role from the spam checker. You can find this by creating a new custom user role, or by editing an existing one. Any user with this custom user role will be automatically skipped by the spam checker.

Amazing! I was actually wondering whether this is possible.
