Review all the words and names you've blacklisted. Some piece of a good guy's name (or email address) may be on your blacklist.

How frequent? And do they comment elsewhere frequently?

They may be triggering the filter themselves, and while you're digging them out, others may be flagging them.

I search them out in the spam folder, mark them as "Not Spam" and then approve the comment, but it's laborious.

Is there any way to "whitelist" a commenter so they never get sent to spam?
