The first screen after logon has: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Forward your spam to: submit.________________@spam.spamcop.net or: Paste entire spam (headers, blank line, body) - or - single address (one line only): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. What is the danger in forwarding the spam to submit.________________@spam.spamcop.net without doing anything else? 2. Same question for paste entire spam (headers, blank line, body)? 3. What is single address (one line only)?

I’m only using OUTLOOK. I’ve already done this in Mailhost Configuration: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mailhost configuration How? For users with only one email address, the process is easy. Simply log into your SpamCop reporting account and click on the Mailhosts tab at the top of the page. Click on the link at the the bottom of the page to Add first hosts and follow the instructions. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Then I get the problems I mention above in this thread. I click this: Add first hosts Should I be doing this more than once with different values? And for what and why? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - This process will send you a test email with more instructions. Please enter the email address you would like to register. We will of course keep this address in strict confidence. Other than this test email, SpamCop will use only your registered address (dljudd@swbell.net) to contact you. __________@swbell.net What is the standard name of this email provider - for instance, hotmail.com might be referred to simply as "Hotmail"? swbell.net - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Please register your real email address first so SpamCop can learn to recognize your home system. Then register the addresses you use for forwarding your mail around so that SpamCop can tie your home system to the forwarding system, or systems if you use a variety of email addresses at different domains for business or stealth purposes. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Aren’t these the same email address? Do I do this anyway? I don’t see the difference. My real email address is the same one that is addresses you use for forwarding your mail. Obviously I'm missing the point on what traverse more that one domain during configuration means.

You can ignore this email. I'm not using YAHOO anymore. I've installed OUTLOOK and am using it. My next problem is in the Traverse more than one domain during configuration thread.

I’m configuring my Mailhost. I enter this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This process will send you a test email with more instructions. Please enter the email address you would like to register. We will of course keep this address in strict confidence. Other than this test email, SpamCop will use only your registered address (dljudd@swbell.net) to contact you. __________@swbell.net What is the standard name of this email provider - for instance, hotmail.com might be referred to simply as "Hotmail"? swbell.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I forwarded the [SpamCop] account configuration email as an attachment to mhconf._______________@cmds.spamcop.net. I receive back an email Spamcop account configuration: error: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- “The email sample you submitted for ________@swbell.net appears to traverse more than one domain. Please ensure that you configure each mailhost individually and in order.” ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Both swbell.net and yahoo.com are in the header information. I have both OUTLOOK and YAHOO. I’m using OUTLOOK. I’m not using YAHOO in the future. Everything for the Mailhost configuration was processed from OUTLOOK because YAHOO can’t forward the email as an attachment These are the settings for both OUTLOOK and YAHOO. Outlook swbell.net imap.mail.att.net smtp.mail.att.net Yahoo yahoo.com imap.mail.yahoo.com smtp.mail.yahoo.com I assume that “traverse more than one domain” means that because swbell.net and yahoo.com are in the header, that is causing the error. I’m missing the point on something simple. How would I remove the association between swbell.net and yahoo.com, whatever it is if that is the cause? I have stopped using YAHOO mail. Do I delete my YAHOO account? Both Outlook and Yahoo use the same ___________@swbell email address.

I'm coming real close to changing from YAHOO to OUTLOOK on both my desktop PC and Android phone just so I can forward email as an attachment. I'll use my Windows PC OUTLOOK to do the forwarding as attachment if the my Android version 9 doesn't let me. Or if there is a different common mail app I can use on both. I'll give this thread 7 more days then for a answer which I bet doesn't really exist in the YAHOO world.

I am using YAHOO MAIL web based. I’m redoing my MAILHOSTS. The help for YAHOO MAIL has this: “Since Yahoo! does not provide a raw email source feature, it is easiest to report spam received in your Yahoo! account by using the SpamCop email interface. Simply forward (as attachment) the offending email to your personal spam reporting address.” The returned email for SpamCop] account configuration emailI has this: Alternately, you may submit via email. Forward the message as an attachment to this address. mhconf.___________________@cmds.spamcop.net This can not be done in YAHOO. YAHOO Customer Care says this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for contacting Yahoo! Customer Care. I understand you want to forward email as an attachment from your Yahoo! Mail account. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you and let me address this for you. Unfortunately the feature or functionality that you're describing is not currently available in the newest version of Yahoo! Mail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This also has been removed from YAHOO: - Press Shif+Alt+F (simultaneously). - It will automatically compose a new message with the selected e-mail(s) added as an attachment. So just add an e-mail address and send. The current and updated YAHOO mail versions don't have any of these attachment methods. So I'm currently stuck with no MAILHOST because I can't forward the test emails as a YAHOO attachment. I can copy and past the RAW MESSAGE, but that doesn't appear to do me any good if I'm not able to send it anywhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I also tried this: Please return this complete email, preserving full headers and the special tracking codes below. Visit this address: https://www.spamcop.net/mcgi?action=mhreturn I pasted the YAHOO raw message into the Paste headers (or entire intact email) here: box. Nothing into the second box. This doesn’t work either. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The point of all of this is how can I satisfy sending full headers and the special tracking codes to the correct location using YAHOO?

Found an email about forwarding YAHOO mail as an attachment: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you for contacting Yahoo! Customer Care.

I'm sure this is really basic, but I've missed the point on how to use SPAMCOP correctly.

I’m now redoing my MAILHOST. I’m processing 4 test emails from MAILHOST. I’ve only processed 1 previously in the past. I pasted the YAHOO raw message into the Paste headers (or entire intact email) here: box. Nothing into the second box. This was returned for one of the test emails: Sorry, SpamCop has encountered errors: The email sample you submitted for ______@______.___ appears to traverse more than one domain. Please ensure that you configure each mailhost individually and in order. Proceed here: <https://www.spamcop.net/mcgi?mhc2=vM0OLJg9QtFX9H91> - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Which gives this error: 500 Internal Server Error Sorry, your request could not be processed. Typically, this is the result of a temporary problem. Please re-try the operation which caused this error in a minute or two. You can even leave this error screen open and use your browser's "reload" button to re-try. Please do not press reload repeatedly though. Pressing the button more often does not resolve the problem faster. It just makes a bad situation worse.

When I do the" validation emails", I'm not getting the header information correct. When I do this, it fails because I'm not sending the "full headers" however it should be done using YAHOO. Please return this complete email, preserving full headers and the special tracking codes below. Visit this address: https://www.spamcop.net/mcgi?action=mhreturn When I do this, I create a new email and copy and paste the email. It can't find the headers: Or create a new message and paste this email into it. Either way, send it to to: ______________________________________________________________ Mainly, I just don't know how to get the headers from my YAHOO email. I don't know what "preserving full headers" means.

I’m receiving this in MAILHOSTS after I forwarded a YAHOO MAIL email to be processed: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Incomplete: xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx Mailhost name: YahooMain Email address: xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx (There are values in the Hosts/Domains, Relaying IPsv4 and Relaying IPsv6) Hosts/Domains: Relaying IPsv4: Relaying IPsv6: Add new hosts Resolve incomplete mail host configuration Select one.. has 2 choices: xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx () xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx (Yahoo Main) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Incomplete address xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx is my YAHOO MAIL address. What's the next step?
