Farelf Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 SpamCop is said to have asked admins not to update complaints1, which would reduce the incidence of feedback (but not of any initial response, which, right enough is sparse if autoresponders/apparent autoresponders are taken out of the picture). 1Some reporters were regarding the responses as abuse in themselves. There was a discussion in the newsgroups about it, led by Anthony Edwards' reaction to SpamCop have requested today that we no longer update complainants once abuse incidents are resolved, on the basis that "By and large, our users view responses from abuse desks as just more spam-related email clogging up their inbox". Read the thread at SpamCop regard responses to complainants as abuse Needless to say, Anthony Edwards is one of the really good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Betsy Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Yes, it is a shame that people are in such a hurry nowadays that they don't read their mail carefully - and that the admin replies that are good news are so few and far between that many people thought the spammer was after them. Because even though they are few and far between, it was always a joy to receive one! Miss Betsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
