Lking Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I loaded the new T-bird ver 3 and tried to report some spam using my quick account using the same approach as with T-bird 2 and I got an error message email back for SpamCop. Standard approach has been: 1. open an email addressed correctly to Spamcop 2. drag and drop spam on the SpamCop email, one at a time or in groups 3 send email to Spamcop Receiving SpamCop encountered errors while saving spam for processing: SpamCop could not find your spam message in this email: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 First thought would be a configuration issue, the 'dragged in e-mails' being sent as in-line rather than attachments. This would be berified by doing a CC: to yet another address to see how it's sent/delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lking Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Yes, my first thought too. Looking at the source (ctrl U) of my copies from ver 2 and ver 3 they seem similar. Still digging. what I see is the format of the attachment. The older version left the attachment in plan text format as in --------------050808000101040302090909 Content-Type: message/rfc822; name="[Norton AntiSpam]Join to healthy nation" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="[Norton AntiSpam]Join to healthy nation" X-Account-Key: account2 X-Mozilla-Keys: $label2 Return-Path: <convention8[at]rotopass.com> Ver 3 encodes it in base64 - including the header --------------020409020306070902020709 Content-Type: text/html; name="Attached Message Part" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Attached Message Part" PGh0bWw+DQo8aGVhZD4NCjx0aXRsZT5bTm9ydG9uIEFudGlTcGFtXVJlOjwvdGl0bGU+DQo8 I did change the config file to "attachment-inline" false. but no change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farelf Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 In the event no other user has found the answer to respond here, the blog at http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging seems to be dedicated to finding answers/solutions ("Community-powered support " and "Mozilla Messaging employees are here to help."). Maybe worth a post there? Or the solution might already be there, somewhere (I couldn't see it though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanngard Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Is it possible to add decoding of base 64-encoded attachments to the Spamcop reporting system? I have to use Thunderbird 2 until this issue is solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Is it possible to add decoding of base 64-encoded attachments to the Spamcop reporting system? I have to use Thunderbird 2 until this issue is solved. I don't know that this option does not already exist, but other options include asking Thunderbird to restore at least the option of plain text attachments or, since it is open source, fix it yourself.

Lking Posted December 18, 2009 Author Share Posted December 18, 2009 Looks like someone already submitted a bug report: http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messagi...zilla_messaging Yes I did. They seem to want to handle it as a local display issue, not the underlying file format issue which effects both local display of the message by TBird 3 and a received app (SpamCop's parser). The work around suggested earlier does work - Forward as attachment. Although denied in other places, I can select (highlight) several spam and then click on Forward resulting in all attached spam being in multi-part MIME format which works with SpamCop. What is lost by this workaround is being able to use a pre-addressed message template, so multiple address must be entered each time (SpamCop, coldrain, uce.gov etc.). Also the From: line on the new outgoing message is picked up from one of the attached spam and needs to be checked - otherwise reporting email could be send from badaddress{at}mydomain.com. The Subject: line is also picked up from, I suppose, the first attachment so it is, Fwd: spam's subject line. Life is a bother. But given the alternative...

Valeryan_24 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hello, A developer made an update for TB3 of Habu extension which allows to report all mails marked as junk to Spamcop, Knujon, FTC, FDA, SEC and ACMA in a same time. https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/2672 The link is on bottom of the page, in the reviews : http://www.shroomery.org/ythan/habu-1.8.6.5a-tb.xpi It works for me on Thundebird 3, both normal and quick report for Spamcop.

Valeryan_24 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 So what is your link (that I broke) trying to load on my computer? An update version of Habu addon which is compatible with Thundebird 3 and allows to report multiple mails to Spamcop in one time. Of course, this is not the official update and has not been verified by Mozilla, so you can scan it or open xpi file with a zip manager to study the code, to be sure it is safe. It's working for me with TB3 on Ubuntu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farelf Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 An update version of Habu addon which is compatible with Thundebird 3 and allows to report multiple mails to Spamcop in one time. ...Just to explain for others, Ythan is the person who wrote this interim-unofficial modification to the add-in and is a moderator on one of the shroomery bulletin boards - and he has made it available in his workspace at shroomery.org.

Ythan Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 If you guys are worried about installing unverified code, these are the changes I made to restore Thunderbird 3 compatibility to Habu.

SteveKelem Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I tried it on Lanikai 3.1 Beta 1 (after modifying the qualifying version string). It worked twice. I submitted two blocks of ~200 messages each. On the 3rd try, it got about 75% through the "Delivering mail..." popup, then hanged Thunderbird...none of the 3 tbird windows would respond to anything other than kill -9. A developer made an update for TB3 of Habu extension which allows to report all mails marked as junk to Spamcop, Knujon, FTC, FDA, SEC and ACMA in a same time. https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/2672 The link is on bottom of the page, in the reviews : //[/i]www.shroomery.org/ythan/habu-1.8.6.5a-tb.xpi"]http://www.shroomery.org/ythan/habu-1.8.6.5a-tb.xpi It works for me on Thundebird 3, both normal and quick report for Spamcop. When Habu does work, if I start to send a report, realize I'm using the wrong originating email address, and hit cancel, Habu deletes all the spam from my current folder. It should wait until after the message is actually sent, if that's possible. shroomery link broken because it currently/still wants to download 'something' without authorisation. Still intact in original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the forums and found this post: http://forums.mosinu.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=41 It appears to work with TB 3.1, however you have to modify the maxVersion variable in the install.rdf file to allow it to install. I would upload it here, but it doesn't seem to allow that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
