moreofless Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Several times I have tried to report one specific email I received in my Yahoo account but each time I get this error: Your message could not be sent. Error sending message [sendMessageFailed] Every other message I report to Spamcop from this Yahoo account works fine. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turetzsr Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 ...Moved from the "SpamCop Reporting Help" forum to the "SpamCop Lounge," as it appears to have nothing to do with SpamCop reporting. ...This is one of those things that I would guess could only be answered by Yahoo, so I'd recommend you contact Yahoo!Mail support. However: good luck getting someone knowledgeable! You may just have to live with it. <sympathetic frown> Long ago, I gave up trying to report spam from my Yahoo!Mail account to SpamCop.

SpamCopAdmin Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I removed all of your unreported spam. Maybe that will fix the problem. - Don D'Minion - SpamCop Admin - - Service[at]Admin.SpamCop.net - If it happens again, please send me the TRACKING URL from the top of the SpamCop parse page, so that I can see what SpamCop is seeing.

priruss Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Several times I have tried to report one specific email I received in my Yahoo account but each time I get this error: Your message could not be sent. Error sending message [sendMessageFailed] Every other message I report to Spamcop from this Yahoo account works fine. Any ideas? I've seen other discussions here that seem to indicate that this is a Yahoo! problem, not a Spamcop problem. They have said that Yahoo! is seeing this email as spam itself and not allowing it to be sent. I've run across several of these, and the only remedy I've found is manual copy-and-paste into the Spamcop interface. I await and will accept correction if I'm wrong about this.

turetzsr Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Hi, priruss, ...Thank you for the suggestion. Have you seen recent mention of the problem? That used to happen to me regularly some time ago but then seemed to have become less of a problem as time went on. I haven't reported any Yahoo!Mail spam to SpamCop in many years, though, so am not familiar with recent events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisati Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 The fact that Yahoo is mentioned in this thread speaks volumes to me - their approach to handling spam reports (and spam in general) is one of those mysteries that I have yet to fathom. But I digress....... Perhaps the best approach for now, as someone else has suggested, is to submit the email in question through the web form rather than by email.
