ZapZombie Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I guess spamcom has agreed with ISP's to turn off their spam filter towards spamcop e-mailaccounts in order to be able to receive the forwarded spam? When my Habul plugin for Thunderbird also forwarded spam to coldrain.net/knujon, I read an error message from the smtp server of my ISP, that the e-mail was not sent because the content was unsolicited. I have requested my ISP to turn off this block towards coldrain.net, like I guessed it is towards spamcop.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lking Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I have requested my ISP to turn off this block towards coldrain.net, like I guessed it is towards spamcop.net You are correct, it is between you and your ISP. I use the same setup as you do to forward received spam to SpamCop, KnujOn and spam{at}uce.gov SpamCop is lots of things but each ISP decides how to set their own filters, incoming and outgoing. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZapZombie Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 Because in the mean time I have read in the answer of my ISP that they decided to keep the spamfilter to knujon/coldrain.net, I searched and found a way to get my spamreports to my reporting ID address at coldrain.net: I have installed the "Auto compress file" extension for thunderbird. When I compress the spam attachments, they are not recognized by the spamfilter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never recommend using your local ISP Gmail do electronically read email though (datamine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
