Mail probes cannot be reported

Every day I get several mail probes, apparently from spammers. These probes slip by Spamcop--they have no body and no subject. When I try to report them, Spamcop refuses stating "No body provided, check format of submission."

Given the frequency and headers, I assume that these messages are mail probes to determine if an address is a spam list is a good address. Why does Spamcop refuse to report them?

Because SC thinks that the submission is incomplete...

To fix, simply add a blank line and"<end of message>" after the headers.
