Submitting spam via the webform...

To submit spam by any means you require an account of one form or another.

SpamCop Free Reporting Account
SpamCop Paid Reporting Account
SpamCop Flat Rate Email Account

To access your reporting options you visit www.spamcop.net∞ and login.

You should be presented with a welcome message under which is an empty text (input) box.

Now, you should copy the entire spam message you wish to report to your clipboard. This MUST include the full headers of the Email as well as the text of the message.

Next, paste that clipboard text into the empty text box on the SpamCop website.

Then click the "Process Spam" button.

There will be a short period while the spam is processed and you will be taken to a new screen which details the source of the spam and who will receive any complainst and notifications.

This is the most important part of the process.

At this stage you can still cancel the report. This might be the preferred course of action if you discover it was a legitimate message after all. Or you might cancel if your own IP address is listed as the source - you don't want to report yourself.

You can decide not to send reports to all the listed Email addresses. Uncheck any check-boxes to stop reports going to a particular recipient.

The SpamCop parsing process includes this manual review stage to help reduce the number of erroneous reports and to improve the reliability of the reporting process.

You can review the reports that will be sent by clicking the Preview Reports button.

Cancel does what it claims and should be used if you are uncertain about the report.

When you are happy that the report should be sent, simply click the "Send Spam Report(s) Now" button.

Once established with the web reporting you can request the option to use Quick Reporting. SpamCop Flat Rate Email Account can use quick reporting by submitting spam reports from within their webmail account.
