MT 3.2 Issues

I recently upgraded my blogging software from MT 3.16 to MT 3.2. I'm loving MT 3.2, but I'm having an issue using it with MT Blacklist. Blacklist is no longer filtering the spam that's being put on my site. That sucks because I've found myself deleting a bunch of crap since I installed 3.2.

Maybe I overlooked something in the installation...or maybe Blacklist isn't compatible with 3.2. I guess I'll have to keep playing around with it to figure out the kinks. Also, MT 3.2 keeps me logged in...even when I log out. I've tried fixing the problem, but that doesn't work. If anyone out there is skilled in the workings of Movable Type, then I'd appreciate it if you could help me out a bit. Thanks.

There's a little glitch in MT-Blacklist that I've post a patch for and Jay explains.

Jay will be updating MT-Blacklist to take full advantage of the spam fighting framework in 3.2.

If you're not running it yet, I highly suggest SpamLookup which complements MT-Blacklist very well.

Bail on MT-Blacklist. What's kept my MT 3.17 install happy so far is SpamLookup.

Open your Blacklist.pl, look for

return 1 unless $MT::VERSION =~ m(^3\.1);

and replace it with
return 1 unless MT->version_number >= 3.1;
.
