neo matey, you need to use wild cards!

eg *@fkingspambot.com
Should stop anyone using that email address from joining!

Also ranges of IP addresses (check out the "whois" then add the range!)

a little hint, add some custom registration fields, it'll make it harder for the bots, havent had a single spambot on my phpbb3 forum thats been up for soon a year or so. its not as active as this one tho only got 2287 posts.
