I've been getting dozens of "no master" over the past week that are APNIC related. Should I do this for all, or will the computer detect these eventually?

Cheers!

I can't get at your tracking link (I think you snagged the wrong one), but your quote shows info for KRNIC, which you may or may not know is not an ISP but a national level registry for Korean IP numbers. You have to go a level deeper to get the actual ISP:

whois -h whois.nic.or.kr 210.116.160.59

query: 210.116.160.59

(---skipping Korean output---)

So there IS a master for this address, but I don't know why SpamCop wouldn't have found it (since it should normally be able to "see through" KRNIC). Sometimes I have had success with these by shift-refreshing the report page.

I, too, am unsure of why SpamCop didn't find the master. Typically if it were just a case of the ISP in question being a known spam-host or the abuse address bouncing, SpamCop would just send it to devnull[at]spamcop.net or something like that. In this case it may be a case of SpamCop timing out before it can resolve the actual ISP. In that case, what you may need to do is go back up and do a "refresh/show" on the host and sometimes that'll kick-start SpamCop into reporting the correct site. I won't go so far as to say that'll fix it, but it's unlikely to hurt anything.
