Quick reporting query from the newsgroups

[Wazoo]

Rumour has reached my screen that there exists a quick.sc_code[at] e-mail

address.  Is this rumour true?  I have the perl scri_pt suppled by SpamCop

hooked up to a dedicated spamtrap account (uses addresses that can never be

valid at the domains in question, and that spammers chose for me :> ), and

it'd be nice to not have to hit 'confirm' on each of the spams that gets

reported...

The search engine (google in fact) did not return that section when asked to

find 'quick' in the FAQ.  There is also no link with that title in the FAQ

section on reporting, possibly implying that since I'm not a paying user,

certain items in the FAQ are not visible to me - or the item is only in the

forum and not in the FAQ.

Ta

The www.spamcop.net FAQ is incorporated into the single-page

access point and much expanded version found in the Forum. That

you didn't find the 'titled' item says that you didn't follow the link

to the Forum version of the SpamCop FAQ. The birth of the

Forum version was due to issues such as this.

Try "quick." without the quotes... Results 1 - 10 of about 12,100 from forum.spamcop.net for quick..

I'm guessing that the "Google search" referenced was from the www.spamcop.net Help page, dropdown wasn't used (or reached) so the only thing 'searched' was the www.spamcop.net FAQ ... second 'note' would be that as this person didn't follow the original link to 'see' the Forum version of the SpamCop FAQ, he/she probably won't see this either <g> .... but then again ...????
