Any way to automate spam reporting from email client?

[GodzFire]

I use Thunderbird for my email client and because I get a lot of spam, use the spamcop email link to forward them in bulk to get processed.

However, I still have to log onto the site to 'finish spam reporting'. Is there a way to have it automatically send and report?

If that's not possible, when I do bulk forward and go to the spamcop.net website, it says there's spam waiting to be reported. You click that link, it takes you to the first one, you report it, then have to go back, click the link to go into the next one, report it, etc. Is there a way instead of having to do the back and forth you can just click somewhere a 'report all' or 'submit all' and be done with it?

logon select tab preferences
Then
Report Handling Options
scroll down to 
Quick Data Reports
Make sure you have your mailhosts enabled and setup or you could be reporting yourself
This will only send a report to the email server that sent it.

I don't have 'Quick Data Reports' in my options, only the following:

Show Technical Details during reporting
Report reply handling
spam Munging
3rd party report default

I think you might have to chat with the deputies to get that option enabled.

They control if you see the option because you could automate something that picks up legitimate email from friends or family that will report automatically.

only paid users might have that option.

I vaguely remember that when I signed up (a loooooong time ago) there was that option on my account. . I don't have it now either...

This is what I have on mine (description text removed below the individual preferences.

just a quick reminder about the "mole" option (from 2004)

Quote

Mole accounts are active and they do count in the stats, but they don't count in the BL.
...

When an ISP looks at aggregate counts (whether they've opted
for those mailings or look at their isp account on the webpage) they
will see 'trap reports = xx, spam reports = zz, mole reports = yy'.

 

Quote

ISPs can sign up for summary reports -- daily or hourly -- and many have
signed up. The summary reports are just that -- lists of IPs and counts of
spams -- and if looked at or scripted by an ISP/hosting company they do
indicate where there are problems or emerging issues.

I don't believe much has changed there since.

Well I'm a paid member? used to be the same last Millennium?

Seems it's now only available for paid subscribers.
this is what I see
SpamCop Preferences
What non-subscribers see (thanks RobbiBue)

There is a free version widows program that, once you work out can automate reporting
You need it (MailWasher) to check your email first to check for spam (not hard)
To stop getting annoying auto-acks set up a free throw away email account like Gmail, you must check at least once a day!
It is very good - you can add block (sort ham from spam) like SpamCop, and others like ZEN SpamHause
