What I'm seeing with th What I'm seeing is that the modification(s) still seem to be necessary.

Instead of forwarding the spam as an attachment to "my" reporting adddres, I use the "view source" option of whichever email client, copy it to the submission form on the reporting page, and change the "Received" to "X-Received" before clicking "submit"

It's a known issue. Some remove the "broken" ipv6 Received header. In the interests of preserving all the information available, I submit the spam manually, editing it read X-Received. A similar approach is sometimes helpful with emails arriving at Gmail accounts

Most of the spam I receive at my hotmail/outlook accounts gets flagged for reporting to report_spam@..... as well. There are a couple of options. If you've done the "add fuel to your account" thing you might want to consider looking for the abuse address for the apparent sending server/device, and adding that as a user defined report.

Jumping in relatively late into this discussion, I've had Google block my attempts to submit reports from time to time too. My ISP does it as well. One workaround I use is to send the reports and submissions from an email account that I'm paying a little extra money for that lets me whitelist recipients. It's not perfect, but I have seen a significant improvement.

@nhraj700 Confirmed, I received a similar email.

If you're forwarding the email to your spamcop reporting address, you need to forward it as an attachment.

#metoo - I sometimes have unwanted email arrive at my outlook email account that apparently arrives from yahoo or google, yet the parser decides to use the MSN reporting address. It's annoying having to do so, but when I spot such an email, I uncheck the report to hotmail, and fill in an appropriate abuse address for user submitted reports.

Good luck getting this sorted out. I'm mildly disappointed that the parser detected a problem with the chain of received headers, it would have been nice for Spark NZ (who "own" the xtra.co.nz domain) to have another prod to sort out their email system.

Almost there, but not quite. Most of us won't be able to view those reports. The tracking URL that's more useful to the rest of us typically appears below this:

The community who regularly contribute to this forum is made up of volunteers from a variety of backgrounds. Some of us (myself included) live outside of the USA, and have a different set of legal and cultural considerations to bring to any discussions. One thing we have in common is a dislike of unwanted email. It's not always easy to effectively deal with the "spam" issue when the people who receive the reports sent on behalf of Spamcop users don't seem to care.

If your provider changes some of its "behind the scenes" stuff, it will be a good idea to log in to your spamcop reporting account, click on the "mailhosts" menu tab, scroll down the page, click on the "add new hosts" link, follow the instructions, and, hey, presto, things should be sweet.

Agreed, it's a pain. It's one of those things that seem to be sent to trip us up when using automated tools to assist the reporting process,.

A popular response I've had from places like Yahoo is "The most effective way of reporting spam is to use the report button" - I do, thanks to the Habul plugin for Thunerbird, and off go the reports to Spamcop, Knujon, and a couple of other places.

I rarely use Yahoo's Webmail these days, and I'm stoked that "View Raw Message" is coming back.

Linux aint Unix.....

If nothing else, continuing to report emails with a serverhub.com connection will help keep them in sight of the processes which feed the SCBL.

The key combination seems to work with Telecom NZ (Xtra), who also use Yahoo for their email services.

I've even had an incoming spam with a forged "Reply-to:" addresses using my own domain. I suspect that it could be a variant of the spam technique that utilizes backscatter to get the spam through, but I only recall noticing one such email.

And they are confident that you will be surprised to learn the truth about your fund, which is being held by an employee of the FBI/Fedex/UPS who happens to use a free email account in preference to one authorized by the organization they work for.
