[SpamCop-List] my own email is parsed

SpamCop is suggesting I report my own email address as a source of spam,
as one of the email addresses referenced in the spam.  Uh, duh, yeah, it
is in the headers because it was sent to me.  It is rather disturbing to
think Spam Cop can't distinguish between recipient and sender.

I never use SpamCop to make reports, just to obtain the address to which
to send complaints, but I was not expecting to see my own address
treated as if it ought to be reported to the abuse address of my ISP.
