How so?

If you email report/submit to spamcop, what SC sends to the yahoo addy
is a trackerlink and some headers in the body.  Those headers are simply
the headers of the mail sent which contains the phish or spam in the
body, not the phish or the spam or the phish or the spam's headers.

How do you theorize the trackerlink [for a spam or phish] + sending
headers thereof will trip yahoo's antiphish [or fraud or viruses also
mentioned at the top link] tech?
