NoSpamHere Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Hi I've been emailing spam for days and it doesn't show up to be reported. Please help.... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Have you been through the FAQ yet? Have you tried any troubleshooting on your own? Has your ISP added in some filtering? Does any of your e-mail make it to the other end? Next time you try to submit a spam, CC: a copy to another account elsewhere and see if it makes it to either place. You've not said what tools are in use, what and how you are submitting, so the possibilities could be infinite. Start with the above and see where that leads ...

NoSpamHere Posted January 5, 2005 Author Share Posted January 5, 2005 Yes I've tried everything that I can think of, including more than 1 ISP. I am emailing the spam the same way that I have done it for 3 years. This is not the first time the problem occured and in the past it was lost on the Spamcop servers. This particular issue started about 4 days ago when some emails got through and others did not. It was all or nothing with email being sent in groups at different times of the day. Now NOTHING is getting through the spam system. I did find that my email is getting to the Spamcop server and I have gotten email replies from Spamcop when sending a test email WITHOUT spam.

Wazoo Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 From the top, you are posting in the Reporting Help Forum. You started with "e-mailing spam" ... However, you then go to "e-mail was lost on the SpamCop server" ...??? That's a hard one to guess at. Now we get to the 'current' some went, some didn't, now noting ... 1. I don''t see where you talked about the results of my CC: suggestion. 2. You say "I did find that my email is getting to the Spamcop server" ...??? Proven how? You also state that "test messages with no spam" appear to fly. Doesn't that sound like another suggested possibility of your ISP adding in filtering of outgoing spam? (again, see the FAQ, if so, please say so and I'll add your ISP to the list of ISPs doing this) As a matter of fact, is your ISP already listed? I've got no idea if you are sending from the same place you are postin from. The CC: to another address of a spam submittal will help in clearing up that part of the equation.

duncanville1 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 same here, I haven’t received any conformations for the many reports I have sent, I have checked and found no bounced flags on my reports page and I even built a new account with one of my other email addresses and still no conformations. Also neither of my ISP's are listed in the FAQ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't say whether you tried the CC: to another ISP / account or not to verify that the spam submittal is actually leaving your ISP e-mail account. Also neither of my ISP's are listed in the FAQ... The IP address from which you posted here is in that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazoo Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 As said way back in the first response I'd offered, you also didn't add in the answers to "You've not said what tools are in use, what and how you are submitting" .... so there may be an issue involved there also ...???? Technically, you don't have to wait for a spam ... you can submit any e-mail, just remember to cancel the report rather than "Sending" it ...

duncanville1 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 not a problem, i should have cc'ed myself earlier, apparently earthlink changed there port for the smtp server, no mail was getting out. spamcop is actually the only mail i send out on a regular basis and i use mail washer interface so i didnt see the errors.
