    When I revisit your tracking original tracking URL, I still see the RFC6598 problem.  Once the programmers can fix it, revisiting this URL should show properly.

    ALSO: For some strange reason, even through this problem has been going on for months, it stopped right after I posted this forum thread! I have since received spams that were forwarded through iCloud but they no longer have the 100.x.x.x. address.

    My guess is you happened to have hit a different internal address and it just worked.  If you get an email with a RFC6598, you may still see the problem.

     I've tried contacting EuroDNS (the dns host for the parent domains), but those domains are (technically) not (directly) sending or linked to in the spam, so they won't do anything without "blatant proofs".

    The problem with links in the body is that they can be added by a malicious spammer.  The only item that you can trust as coming from the spammer is the IP address they used to contact your border email server.  Everything else in the email could be intentionally added to damage a third party.

    Has someone been spoofing my account?

    They may have acquired your special secret submit.xxxxxx@spam.spamcop.net address, which doesn't need a password.  You may want to contact the deputies to and have them track where they came from.

    So, we can see that the 100.108.117.178 header is within iCloud, and should be skipped over on the way to finding the real spam source.

    My understanding is that RFC6598 addresses are supposed to be treated exactly like RFC1918 addresses.  SpamCop probably needs to update their code.

    After reading your tracking URL, it seems that there may a disconnect between the two Received lines.  I don't know how it gets from "p28-mailgateway-smtp-5c9bd88869-f6mrw" to "unknown".

    Received: from unknown (unknown [100.106.114.12]) by ....
    Received: from pv33p00im-smtpin013.me.com by p28-mailgateway-smtp-5c9bd88869-f6mrw (mailgateway 2209B259)

    All contain links to emails which on the website give "Nothing to do" messages, due to "identified internal IP as source" and similar errors.

    I have not seen any issues with reporting.  Could be held mail in someone's queue.

    to see how well SA will work then i may consider let it automatically delete the mail.

    I prefer to use the spamassassin defaults when ever possible because years ago, I had signed up for an online game emails and their server showed up on the SCBL.  Some people report things through SpamCop that they forgot they signed up for.  That said, it would be probably better to change the score of the SpamCop rule in spamassassin.

    score RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 0 1.246 0 1.347 # n=0 n=2

    The score temporarily rejects at 5.0.  It permanently rejects at 12.0.  The reason why spamcop is low around 1.246, is because it will add with other rules for a total count to trigger the rejects.  I would suggest keeping this below 5 because you could have email you want be caught by this rule.

    Once listed it is also added to SpamAssassin score

    The score is smaller than the blocking and you usually have multiple items add up to the trigger point.  You can adjust these scores in the spamassassin/local.cf file so upgrading doesn't lose your settings.

    I just want to get rid of the manual reporting action and have Spamassassin trigger the forward of the email to Spamcop.

    I did find the following talking about the plugin too.

    Each time, another IP from that group is beeing used - abuse contact for all used servers is ralfnoack1982@gmail.com. I suppose, this could be the spammer himself, since reporting is beeing ignored. 

    That address is coming from the whois at ripe.  Because Europeans tend to do that lately, they tried to limit what can be seen by a query.  I would prefer they use an abuse@ address too.

    That's from how I file IP address's in a workbook that I use to keep track of spammers, to avoid entering each (a.b.c.d) D in the workbook, I set it to 0.

    There's over 18,000 entries in the book, including abuse address's, if any.

    I made my own blacklist and use the DNS wildcard. such as *.c.b.a.dnsbl.example.com.  I even did a few that go to the class B /16.

    No source IP address found, cannot proceed.
    Add/edit your mailhost configuration
    Finding full email headers

    I would get that if they report comes from my ISP that I have configured on mailhosts.  They I would go to my ISP with the abuse and let them know they need to deal with a spammer.

    WHEN did you configure your mailhost today a year ago?
    You may have to delete the configured mailhost and resend, sometimes your ISP change their IP's (shift servers)
    Unless you send a SpamCop tracking URL to see what's happening those that can help will be in the dark

    At TOP of reporting page BEFORE you submit spam

    Now Mariano, if you pull up the tracking URL while being logged out, all the vital parts of the spam should be munged.  No personal data should be visible.  If you feel comfortable with how it munged, you can post the link here.

    In fact when I send a report it responds by sending a massive amount of spam to me. So much so that I'm canceling that email. I went silent for awhile and it's spam died down. Then I reported one spam and In 10 minutes got 23 spams sent to me.

    When they would do that to me I would report all 23.  They soon realized the only way to stop the reports was to stop spamming me.  At times I have temporarily abandoned some accounts, but I still have most of my accounts so I can report the one spam each account gets every week.

    I tried clicking it (against my better judgement) and my browser (Brave) did correctly parse and open it. Every link in the email is identical.

    I wonder if this was a Brave search to URL redirect such as the "I feel lucky" button that google used to have.  I tried five browsers with your link and all of them either couldn't the 。 as a valid part of the hostname or else they took me to their related search page thinking it was a search term.

    I suspect SpamCop is ignoring it because 。 is not a valid hostname as per the RFCs.

    Several months later it seems that their spam@ mailbox still not being read or paid attention to reports.

    That is part of the reason I use a block list and a firewall.  If their ISP doesn't want to play nice, then I sometimes block the whole range.  (Of course, I try to figure out if there might be any legitimate email from those IPs before blocking.)

    Other than continuing to spend my hours reporting them all to Spamcop, does anyone have other thoughts on how I can make this headache stop?

    Maybe you can convince your hosting service to add some sort of filtering option.  I have filtering turned on in my account and so far, I only get about one spam from serverion once every two months.  Filtering such as SpamAssassin can work based on keywords in the body or headers, so even if they change IP address ranges, it can still be blocked.  One thing I like about SpamAssassin is that if someone accidentally lists the wrong IP address on their block list, it could still make it through.  Once SpamAssassin adds up multiple filters and gets to a limit, it will block it at the SMTP level (which means the server doesn't accept it and also doesn't sent a bounce later).

    Another filter option is similar to Yahoo or gmail's filter rules, which are based only on a keyword.

    I'm still having problems with these.  Here's one I reported earlier.  https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6734521748z31344c1b98ac107ec335fc366cc181e2z

    Is it possible to unpick where it's really comming from?

    If the Received: lines can be trusted, then you can look at the "from" of the Received: line and trace it back.  I think the issue of unpicking it is technically difficult as you can only trust the Received: lines that are placed by your ISP or your mail server.  You would only be able to trace it back to the specific server that sent it to your mail server.

    SpamCop shouldn't stop there, but follow the whois path given!

    Why SC doesn't now continue checking on whois.apnic.net but instead stops, I don't know. I suppose whois.arin.net changed something and SC never got updated to the new format.

    If I do a whois in my cygwin terminal, whois automatically continues to the new referral:

    I keep hoping that someone at SpamCop might pick up the following request and to implement this.  From what I currently understand, SpamCop only follows certain whois referral entries.  Be nice if they could follow all of them.  This was noticed around 2012 when Apnic and RipeNCC ran out of IPv4 addresses and started exchanging then with the other RIRs.  Richard was having to manually update all the entries to sort them out.  Manual changes take too long and it would be better to automate it.
