MT-Akismet
MT-Akismet is the official plugin for Movable Type that transparently integrates its junk handling capabilities with the Akismet collaborative spam filtering service.
For many people, Akismet will greatly reduce or even completely eliminate the comment and TrackBack spam you get on your sites. If one does happen to get through, simply mark it as Junk and Akismet will learn from the mistake.
This is the official plugin for Movable Type that was developed by Appnel Solutions for Automattic, the people behind the Akismet service.

Documentation says “MT-Akismet requires valid API key that is provided when you create a WordPress.com account.” This is accurate, but a little confusing. I thought it was a typo when I first read it.
Documentation was written prior to release of MT 4, but there don’t seem to be any incompatibilities.
Plugin is easy to install, and it’s easy to get a Wordpress account + Akismet API and insert it into the plugin’s settings.
So far, it’s done a lovely job of filtering out spams. Yay.
