[TYPO3-english] Comments extension not scoring spammy comments

Hello list,

I'm wondering if I've misconfigured the extension, or if comments'
spam-detection abilities are just somewhat weak. As far as I can
determine according to the manual, spam protection settings are
correct. But I often receive comments like the following with a spam
score of zero (!):

== Begin spammy comment (urls anonymized):
Predilection casinos? scrutinization this environmental <a
href=http://example.com>casino</a> advisor and wing it denigrate
online casino games like slots, blackjack, roulette, baccarat and more
at www.example.com .
you can also into our blooming <a href=http://example.com>casino</a>
orientate at http://example.com and broaden the main bona fide tangled
filthy lucre !
another unconnected <a href=http://example.com>casino</a> in the
partition of is www.example.com , in the service of german gamblers,
get magnanimous online casino bonus.
== End

It's not a major problem since I require comments to be approved in
any case (and the auto-delete link is superb in these cases!), but I'd
like to know if it's me or if it's the extension :)

Anybody have a similar experience with the comments extension?
