# ‘Suppress SPAM comment notification’ not working?

 * With the ‘Suppress SPAM comment notification’ box checked in the plugin settings,
   I am still getting spam comment notifications delivered.
 * E.g. A comment came in at 6:32am today, got marked as spam, (we have Akismet 
   installed) and I received the “comment requires moderation” notification email
   I created with BNFW at the same time, despite having the ‘suppress SPAM comment
   notification’ box checked in the settings.
 * I have not done these steps,
    [https://betternotificationsforwp.com/how-can-i-receive-the-best-support/](https://betternotificationsforwp.com/how-can-i-receive-the-best-support/)
 * But I’m wondering if there are any simple sanity checks I can do to troubleshoot
   this before I test on a clean install of WP.
 * Thank you for your time!
