When I first noticed that non of my quick reporting submissions were not 
generating returns I too went to the main report page and didn't see a 
notice that anything was wrong so thought it was to do with  recent 
changes I had made in MailWasher.  Those settings checked out so I went to 
Recent Reports and noticed the No Reports Filed note against the 
submissions.  I then went to the spamcop newsgroup and looked for topics 
with No Reports Filed as subject line in recent days, couldn't find an 
answer so posted a simple enquiry.  I then looked in spamcop.help and 
found the answer immediately (should have looked there first).  Then 
following instructions I went to Preferences an activated Quick Report 
Data again and everything went back to normal.  It must have taken all of 
ten minutes altogether.

Sure, they could have put a notice up although their webmaster seemed to 
have gone on holidays just at the wrong time and maybe no one could do it 
that was left.  However, I'm still surprised that people were still 
posting questions on the same thing just above an obvious answer to it.  
Still, I almost did it as well.  Swearing and cursing and threatening to 
leave due to the first hiccup for ages in an otherwise smoothly running 
service doesn't really seem to be the best approach in these circumstances.
