 As stated in another post, the original query was seen to ba lacking
some specific details, what e-mail apps were in use for instance.
Sire, one could assume OE as seen in the posting headers, but
we all know that Outllok uses OE for NNTP ... so rather than
make an assumption, suggesting hitting the Forum at the top
seemed much wiser.

 And again, this poster had already stated that the www.spamcop.net
FAQ didn't answer his/her questions.  And again noting that I had in
fact touched a couple of specific issues before getting to the Forum
FAQ suggestion.

I didn't say squat about posting ... I was suggesting another resource
for answers that may have been easier to use than the already described
failed attempt at using the Help link from the web-page.

As so many questions and issues are wrapped up in that post, my
logic is that the whole SpamCop experience seemed to be an issue
for this poster.
