I've been happily using Botcha for some years without any issues.

However I have installed LoginToboggan on one of my sites and now get a false positive everytime a user tries to register to become a member of the site. This happens on a correct, human entered, first time attempt (no resubmissions etc). The log says the failures were Honeypot and Honeypot2. I am using the default recipe book (all recipes).

It does not occur for ordinary user login (which uses the same recipebook), only for new registrations.

If I create a recipe book that disables Honeypot and Honeypot2, everything works fine.
If I disable logintoboggan and restore the original recipebook (default), everything also works fine.

There appears to be a problem with LoginToboggan and Botcha.
For the moment I will leave the two honeypots disabled for registration.

Thanks
Peter
