Squrvis Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 I am currently registered as a free user of spamcop and have mailhosts activiated and submit spams via email. At the bottom of the reporting page, just below "Send spam Report(s) Now" it says: "ATTENTION: Report only those e-mail addresses and web sites that you think your spammer has used. Avoid checking any boxes left empty unless you know that your spammer has used the addresses or sites thus identified. Each false report that you submit means wasted time for a network administrator, so take care. The last thing SpamCop wants are network administrators so accustomed to false claims that they no longer take these spam reports seriously. " I have some cases where legit non-spam URI's are included in a spam email and would like the ability to do precisly what this message says to do: Not send reports to those domains. However, I don't have any check boxes to check or uncheck on the screen. It lists each report that will be sent, but its either all or nothing. Currently, I have to cancel the entire report if only 1 domain in the email is not a real spammer. Is this normal behavior? -Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 First guess is that you enrolled as a "mole reporter" ..??? To accomplish what you want, perhaps you need to re-register and see if the "mole" checkbox is still offered. FAQ says that Julian decided that this isn't working out and implies that it may disappear ..?? See http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/373.html and make up your own mind.

Squrvis Posted May 19, 2004 Author Share Posted May 19, 2004 Ahh. I am registered as a mole. I'll check it out. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 yes, mole reports are not sent at all, they only add to the blocklist. And since spamvertized sites are not blacklisted, nothing is done with those links as a mole reporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
