Antispam is one of the more out-of-the-way corners of Dreamwidth development.

Antispam Privs

In order to even see what's in the spam-handling pages, your dreamhack's basic-antispam user will need privs.

The syntax to grant the necessary privs on the console is: priv grant siteadmin:spamreports,sysban:talk_ip_test username

Antispam users have access to the sysban management page but don't often go there now. http://www.dreamwidth.org/admin/sysban

The following roles, roughly, touch antispam stuff:

Site Admin - top of the priv chain of trust; manages large-scale sysbans.
Terms of Service - courtesy antispam privs, can suspend
Antispam Lead - can grant antispam privs to new spamwhackers, can suspend OpenID accounts, can suspend regular accounts, has finduser email.
Basic Antispam User - can sysban:talk_ip_test, can view spam reports, can close spam reports.
