jseymour Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I have a yahoo.com address that receives nothing but spam. Those messages are automatically forwarded to my spamcop address for reporting. I succcessfully added that address to the new mailhosts system and several messages seemed to have been parsed properly after that. But now, I'm getting the vast majority (perhaps 80% or more) where the reports want to go to Yahoo since the mailhost is not detected. This appears to be happening because the messages came from a Yahoo mail server unknown to Spamcop. Do I need to go through the "add host" logic again? It seems to me that Yahoo's mail server setup must be horribly complex. How can we and/or Spamcop keep up on such things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jseymour Posted March 23, 2004 Author Share Posted March 23, 2004 Yes, please do. If that doesn't work, please follow Ellen's advice. I resubmitted my Yahoo address to the mail host system and, after a couple of false starts, eventually got it to work(*). This morning's batch of email seems to have gone through without any parsing errors. Keeping my fingers crossed... (*) The false starts were my own fault. I was forwarding the confirmation emails from the wrong address and they were (apparently) being silently ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
