[Mediawiki-l] Spam blacklist?

I've noticed that Wikipedia and Meta have a spam blacklist that 
disallows
external links that match certain regexps. How do I enable this on my
local Wiki?

I've tried setting up a page Spam_blacklist, copied from the version on 
Meta.
I've searched for information both on Meta, and by grepping the php 
code.

I'm currently running MediaWiki version 1.3.10, but I grepped the 
sources
in 1.4.2.

All help appreciated,

Charles
