Comment management in WordPress isn’t too hard when you manually approve each comment. You know which comments you’ve seen, and which you haven’t. The only downside is that you have to approve the comments before they appear. Comment Inbox gives you the ease of the moderation queue with the freedom of unmoderated comments. It’s a better way to deal with spam and bacn on your blog.
Here’s how it works:
<ul>
<li>All comments except caught spam go into moderation (renamed “Comment Inbox”)</li>
<li>All comments in your Comment Inbox immediately show up on the blog — so conversations don’t wait on your moderation skills</li>
<li>There are three actions that can be performed on comments in your Comment Inbox: Archive (i.e. mark as read), Spam, Delete</li>
<li>When your Comment Inbox is empty, you can rest easy knowing you’ve dealt with all your new comments</li>
</ul>

This plugin enables blog admins and editors to manage the notification of incoming comments. As WordPress only has the option to notify on every comment, the email account of the admin may recieve many email each day. Notification is also limited to the admin only, so only the admin user will receive an email for incoming comments.
Using the plugin you can subscribe to a RSS feed that contains even comments that has to be moderated. Every feed entry has the links to delete a comment, mark a comment as spam or approve a comment, if the comment has to be moderated. If a comment has been marked as spam, it will no longer appear in the feed.
