Neutrope Inc.

<p>Neutrope Quiet Shield adds lightweight spam and unsolicited-sales filtering to<br />
Contact Form 7 submissions. The idea is simple: let spam and cold sales<br />
mail be received quietly without disturbing the people running the site.</p>
<p>Each submission is scored against a small set of checks you control:</p>
<ul>
<li>Japanese character ratio: flag messages with too little Japanese text.</li>
<li>URL limit: flag messages that contain more links than you allow.</li>
<li>Submission speed: flag forms submitted suspiciously fast after they were<br />
shown. The timing value is signed so it cannot be tampered with.</li>
<li>Repeat submissions: flag three or more submissions from the same visitor<br />
within five minutes.</li>
<li>NG words: flag messages containing any keyword from your own list.</li>
</ul>
<p>When a submission is flagged you choose what happens with Quiet Mode:</p>
<ul>
<li>Quiet Mode on (default): the visitor sees the normal success message, but<br />
no mail is sent. The reason is written to the log.</li>
<li>Quiet Mode off: the submission is stopped with the standard Contact Form<br />
7 error message.</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin is deliberately small. It makes no external network requests,<br />
creates no database tables, and shows no ads or upsells. Configuration is<br />
stored in a single option, and the log keeps only decision metadata plus a<br />
short, salted IP hash. Message bodies, e-mail addresses and names are never<br />
stored.</p>
<p>If Contact Form 7 is not active, the plugin still activates safely and<br />
shows an admin notice instead of causing an error.</p>
<p>This plugin is an independent add-on and is not affiliated with or endorsed<br />
by the authors of Contact Form 7.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Five independent checks, each configurable from one settings page.</li>
<li>Quiet Mode to silently drop flagged mail or stop it with an error.</li>
<li>Dashboard with today’s passed and blocked counts and a recent activity<br />
log.</li>
<li>Tamper-evident submission-speed measurement using a signed field.</li>
<li>IP addresses are hashed, never stored in raw form.</li>
<li>No external requests, no tracking, no database tables, no ads.</li>
<li>GPL-2.0-or-later. The full license text is bundled in the LICENSE file.</li>
