I agree with what WazoO was saying, just adding some in my style.

I think it is better to troubleshoot problems by submitting to the
webparser first and getting that working.

You are Mac X;  if you start at the first faq page for parsing and
reporting, you follow this trail:

  http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/19.html How do I get my email
program to reveal the full, unmodified email?

  http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/282.html  Mac OS X - To get the
full message source:

and that page also has words to indicated that submitting by email
requires a 3rd party addon 'To use the SpamCop's email submission system
with Mac OS X, a plugin is available from subsume.com (SpamCop Mac OS X
Mail Bundle)'

So, you are probably getting ahead of yourself with the submit address,
which you need to change now that you have exposed it

To get a new authorization if you are free, go here
http://www.spamcop.net/anonsignup.shtml  where you first registered and
re-register 'This is a free SpamCop account. You may re-run this free
authorization whenever you need to. If you do, any previous
authorization information associated with your email address will be
deleted. '

I don't think you are doing it correctly for a Mac X.

Get a new authorization, and use the webparser first using the above
links.
