Since several days I can't forward spam mails as a attachments. If I want to report the mails, I get the message, that the provided informations are incomplete. I now have to forward every spam mail itself, which is cumbersome. Any hint what has changed recently - either with Thunderbird or with Spamcop?

This is usually caused because your email bounced or is bouncing back to SpamCop?
You need to check your setup and if your provider is blocking your auto-ack confirmation

FYI I use Thuderbgird (128.5.0esr (64-bit)), windows 11 (23H2), and report 100+ a day using the FB extension "Just Report it" (quick reporting).

No new issues.

"Facebook Container" is on my list too. In FireFox this extension contains Facebook so it can not see any browser activity outside of the Facebook tab/ history etc.

My version works well in MS Edge, works in Opera but slows loading, will probably remove it from Opera but not a big deal 
Just don't like and suspicious of face book tracking.

Hmmm are we confusing FireBird (FB) and FaceBook (FB)???

The app stops  FACEBOOK inane ads from misguided trackers (windows)
Not heard of Firebird till now looked it up

I'm definitely slowing down also
Seems Microsoft some account I have with them has been accessed seems to be trying to get me to use 360 
The only account I have is a Hotmail, 21 uppercase lowercase Alphanumeric password, they didn't allow characters at time
one they can send to my Gmail account to access the ask for to get a code which I asked for but never arrives?
Now they a SMS'ing my mobile
Turning into a DOS attack have no idea what account is supposedly accessed, 
Logged into my Hotmail no trouble, that's the only one I have with them, use that for dodgy sign-up's the only mail I get is correctly in the trash box, never in the in box except the odd whitelisted ones about every 6 months
Seems like a MS desperate scam to me?

I can't get any support at all these days, have to work it out myself or move on and the others aren't any better. I don't mind paying for pro but not using email etc much...happy scammer day!

MS started sending Email's as well as Mobile SMS

But when I tried to logon they needed to email code to same address they emailed.
The code never arrives
Same for mobile SMS
It is not a important Email account just one I use to check dodgy email addresses
The only other clue was
Sign-in details
Country/region: Latvia
IP address: 136.169.6.192
Date: 11/28/2024 2:14 PM (GMT)
Platform: iOS
Browser: Safari


OK finally got a SMS have made password longer with characters this time
Today I decided to start Skype the same nonsense but the sms to mobile phone is working

Pretty sure this was a fabricated scam to flog their 360 product 
No one accessed my Hotmail account or Skype
As I, unlike MS do have very hard if not impossible to crack passwords (password saver)
When I do change them I make 4 copies I save to my own 4 portable USB hard drives
Defiantly going to Chrome operating system before I buy a new  Computer
I have another more powerful MS computer I can put all this computers programs to
Just time consuming

I steer clear because historically chrome was low on apps. Following recent court rulings re biggest monopoly after MS the US gov is pushing for google to sell off chrome to increase competition. What could possibly go wrong finding a buyer with deep pockets for the browser used by 2/3rds internet users considering a precedent has been set to pay for privacy and support.

Since Bill Gates has left as CEO Microsoft is tumbling down, where not eve Microrobots own APP are just getting slowere and more memory hungry,
Don't know much about Chrome, but this computer is near not running Microsoft.

Seems to me MS is deliberately doing this to make one buy another computer so they can sell another operating system.
In this case I have nothing to lose, but everything to gain
