Bug description:
  Seen on a 15.10 site for example, but possibly also 15.04 on
  mahara.org

  
  Comments placed anonymously on a page send a notification to the "System User". The real person doesn't get notified and it's a way for spammers to leave comments that aren't seen.

  Gregor for example reported that he didn't get informed about spam
  comments on https://mahara.org/user/anzeljg/windowslive-blocktype (or
  the artefact) and thus couldn't remove them unless he was on the page
  and saw the comments. I don't get System User emails, but suspect that
  this might be a similar issue.
