Note: only one of the two lines will be displayed at a time (clicking on one with display the other while toggling back and forth between the two submission form types.
Clicking on Report Now will send the next tracking URL in your reporting queue to the parser for processing. Alternately, clicking on the tracking URL in the confirmation email message or pasting the tracking URL into a browser will also send a single message to the parser and open up the reporting window for that one message only. Using the Report Now button is an easy way to be sure that you have completed the reporting process for each of the messages that you have submitted to SpamCop via forwarding or using the VER interface for full reporting.Report Spam Mailhosts Statistics Past Reports Preferences Webmail Held Email

Clicking on Remove all unreported spam does not actually delete the submitted spam; it simply purges the reporting queue. The submitted spam remains in the "archive" referenced by its tracking URL.
The confirmation email simply contains a link to the tracking URL that allows you to submit the spam referenced by the tracking URL to the parser for processing. There is some sort of flag that gets set when either the Send Spam Report(s) Now or Cancel buttons get clicked that prevents the duplicate sending of reports as well as the appending of the "report sent to" information to the file.

The Cancel report button does not actually cancel the reports in the normal sense, but rather sends the reports to "cancelled[at]devnull.spamcop.net" which effectively does the same thing. See glossary entry: /dev/null'ingIf you cancel the reports and attempt to run the tracking URL through the parser again you will notice the following:
- Reports regarding this spam have already been sent:
Reportid: xxxxxxxxxx To: cancelled[at]devnull.spamcop.net
If reported today, reports would be sent to:

Note: the report ID and info that follows is unique to each tracking URL
If you clicked on the Cancel report button in error, or decide at a latter time that you do actually want to report the message as spam; then you can do so by resubmitting the the message, which will give it a new tracking URL. Remember that all spam must be reported within the current allowed time window. See: Why does SpamCop say my spam is too old?
Menu Bar Links:
Report Spam Returns you to the main reporting window
Mailhosts Opens the Mailhosts configueration window
Statistics Opens the current SpamStats page
Past Reports (now also available to Free Reporting Accounts)
Preferences Link to User Preferences (for reporting) It is broken into two sections:

Held Email (SpamCop Email Accounts only) Displays your held mail using the VER interface.
Your average reporting time provides interesting information and is provided solely for the bennifet of the registered reporter. It has been previously documented that the number reported here may not be accurate and if that is the case, simply ignore it. It has absolutely no bearing on the status of your account with SpamCop. Some individuals have reported that the displayed average was inexcess of 3 days which is mathmaticly impossible as it has never been possible to report a message older that 3 days. The key point is to encourage the prompt reporting of spam, as the sooner it is reported the greater the effect on the list.
The following two links act like a toggle switch and are used to switch back and forth between the two different cut and paste input screens. The displayed link will alway be the opposite of the current input format.
Select outlook/eudora workaround form This two window form was created to provide a workaround for those using outlook or eudora which do not provide headers and body in a format that can be pasted into the single input window easily.
Select all-in-one submission form provides for a single copy and paste process for submitting spam. It requires that the headers be properly formated. No blank lines are permitted within the header section. Also there must be a single blank line (carriage return) between the end of the headers and the start of the body.
