> Welcome to Spamcop.net
SpamCop is the premier service for reporting spam. SpamCop determines the origin of unwanted email and reports it to the relevant Internet service providers. By reporting spam, you have a positive impact on the problem. Reporting unsolicited email also helps feed spam filtering systems, including, but not limited to, SpamCop's own service.

> Incorrect originating IP detected by the web report form
Posted by TraceyC - 11-19-09 12:41 - 1 comments
I've searched the forums, site, and read the FAQs but haven't found a solution to this.
I have a number of spam coming to my work address which I am trying to report with the web based tool. The parser seems to identify the next to last IP address in the headers as the originating IP, which is incorrect. It is identifying my company's e-mail server as the injection point, rather than the bottom most IP address in the full headers.

An example is here
http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z3511383452z7...b6e7078c32aed8z

Spamcop says
QUOTE
130.80.240.50 (Administrator of network where email originates)


The headers say
QUOTE
Received: from exprod7mx187.postini.com (HELO psmtp.com) ([64.18.2.227]) by
ironport2.chron.com with ESMTP; 19 Nov 2009 04:24:58 -0600
Received: from source ([190.162.108.53]) (using TLSv1) by
exprod7mx187.postini.com ([64.18.6.11]) with SMTP; Thu, 19 Nov 2009
10:16:03 GMT


Therefore 190.162.108.53 is the originating source. The other spam messages have different originating IPs. The Spamcop parser always thinks they come from 130.80.240.50. What might be causing this problem? Thanks.

> Company email blocked
Posted by 123456 - 11-18-09 12:55 - 4 comments
My company e mail has been listed twice now in SPAMCOP. I am trying to run a genuine business here and this is extremely annoying and disruptive.

I am also not impressed that you do not make it easy for me to contact an actual person about this and I have to write to this forum instead.

Please can somebody contact me asap.

Thank you.

> Planned Maintenance Window
Posted by SpamCopAdmin - 11-16-09 20:12 - 6 comments
Scheduled server maintenance and software upgrades will be taking place starting at 1:00 p.m. PST (-0800) Tuesday, November 17, 2009. During this time the SpamCop Reporting Service will not be available for a period of
up to three hours in duration. Visitors will find the site in maintenance mode.

Emailed spam submissions will be accepted, but processing will be delayed until after the maintenance process. There will also most likely be a processing delay for several hours after the service is brought back online to clear the backlog.

The purpose of this maintenance will be to deploy a hot patch, bringing SpamCop to version 4.6.0.030 and fixing some minor bugs in the last deployment.

This will not affect the SpamCop/CESmail email service, newsgroups or forums.

> [Resolved] Cannot access Reporting Web page
Posted by geodosch - 11-15-09 11:36 - 4 comments
I submitted 3 messages to the reporting system this morning. I didn't get an email saying they were ready to process, but decided to log in anyway, in case the email was delayed. However, when I submit my HTAccess login information, it just keeps prompting me again for my username/password.

Is the reporting system down, or is it just a problem with my account?

Thanks,

-George

> About those phishing incoming emails...
Posted by cherrick - 11-11-09 17:00 - 6 comments
What do you suggest? When I get those phishing emails claiming to need my SpamCop uid and pwd, is there any reason not to respond by hitting Reply and sending them bogus names and passwords and lots and lots of embedded curse words. And I do mean lots and lots.

Currently, I carefully report the incoming phish as spam and then quietly delete the email.

However, it would give me huge pleasure to know that out there some phisher is opening my email
and turning red in reaction to my rage.

Thoughts?
