o Use $wgSpamRegex to catch typical spam patterns.
In my case this were
free hosters, attempts to use 1 pixel height fonts or other "stealth"
techniques.

true. This is the default since like 1.3, keep it.
Not that it helps much, the wiki spammers don't know or if they do
they don't care.
o I distructivly remove any spam from the database -
as if it never
happened.
On my wishlist: some content analysis systems to augment or replace
$wgSpamRegex. I was thinking of something along the lines of spamassassin,
possibly even recycling some of it's code.
The SpamBlacklist extension!
