It seems the new regex let one spam attempt through. These phone numbers
use groups of numbers which the regex currently isn't catching.
A better regex would be `1[ -\.]*8[ -\.]*[0-9]+[ -\.]*[0-9]+[
-\.]*[0-9]+`. FWIW [https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/BadContent Trac's own
BadContent page] contains an even longer regex which looks to block the
same spam (see the last line).
> The `http:` prevents that trac gets eaten by spammers. It catches most
of the attempts and removing this line would render the site completely
unusable.
The site also becomes harder to use for legitimate users, but if that's
really the only solution i guess we have to live with it :(
