 * In 7 days since installing BB, it has “blocked 49 access attempts”. In that time,
   about 75-80 spams have been caught by Akismet. From reading posts here, I expected
   BB to stop more before they got to Akismet. Does this seem correct?
 * Also, is there a way to see exactly what BB is blocking? I used phpMyAdmin to
   look, but could not see any logs files or anything displayed in a way that would
   allow me to make sure BB was only stopping spam.
 * One person said they tried to comment and the comment did not post. It was not
   in Akismet, so I thought it might be in BB? Since I only get a couple comments
   per week, I want to make sure all is working correctly.
 * Thanks!

 * I am having a real hard time coming to grips with Bad Behavior stopping comments
   before they arrive and not being able to see what is blocked. I tried verbose
   mode, but I still don’t see any way either in the options panel or in phpMyAdmin
   to check what BB has blocked.
 * Does anyone know how to do this?
 * If I can’t occasionally check what is blocked, then probably BB is not for a 
   worrier like me!
