Posting here sometimes gets the deputies notice, and is sometimes a good 
idea to get early feedback from other users, most of them like me who 
have nothing to do with the operation at spamcop.net.

Spamcop.net generally does not have a reliable way to always determine 
what country that the spam originated from or is hosted by.

Spammers are now starting to use zombied machines as name servers and 
web servers, in addition to their previous use as mail servers.

Also many official spam reporting addresses that are country specific 
can not keep up with the volume of reports that spamcop.net can send, 
and it has been reported in at least one case that a government agency 
specifically asked spamcop.net to not send reports.
