Steve Posted September 18, 2021 Posted September 18, 2021 Is anyone having a problem reporting Gmail spam? The last 2 Gmail spams I've received have had SC come back with No reporting addresses found for 209.85.220.65, using devnull for tracking. I alternatively report the spam ton this site: https://support.google.com/mail/contact/abuse?hl=en&rd=1 Here's the tracking URL: https://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z6723876118z2316e05022f73d38d77598da3bc5f84fz Steve Quote

I am thinking that those bounces created SC's latest submission hiccups. Quote

Due to the CSS misconfiguration of the forum I somehow overlooked that part. All good now Quote

RobiBue Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 I don't know. I sure hope so, although they'd investigate them just as they'd investigate the reports sent through SC.... of course, if the reports to google abuse bounce, then the chance is higher by submitting them manually and directly.
