Is it possible using SpamCop mail to blacklist any mail originating in or relayed through any domain in China? Many spammers utilize China as an intermediary, it seems, and many Chinese postmasters refuse SpamCop reports. I don't know anyone in China, so it's unlikely I'd lose anything but spam by doing this.

To achieve what you want, I'd suggest forwarding from that forwarding account directly to your secret account, or turning off forwarding and collecting from it directly, using rules on your client to do what you will with the resulting emails. -- Best Regards, Jeff G.

Thanks for the response, Jeff. What's a secret account? Looking through the SpamCop FAQ, there's a reference to a secret account being an ISP hosted account to which SpamCop is configured to forward non-spam mail. Is this what you mean? Unfortunately, I use SpamCop to host my mail for me. My mail client is configured to get mail directly from imap.spamcop.net - you are an awful lot more reliable than my ISP's mail servers.

You should be configured in such a way that there is very little spam in your Inbox with your wanted mail. When the only spam you ever see is the spam you intentionally go to a folder to visit, it doesn't feel like an attack and it doesn't make you sick. Using SC as a reporting tool doesn't do much of anything to reduce your spam. It facilitates contributions to the SCbl, the spamcop blocklist, a popular and dynamic blocklist used by many to aid in filtering their mail. I use it along with other blocklists to keep spam out of my Inbox by tagging it. If you are a spamcop mail subscriber, your filters should be keeping spam from your inbox as well. That particular item would've been filtered by my filters because it is on the spamcop blocklist, along with a number of others I don't use. -- Mike Easter kibitzer, not SC admin From jeffg at spamcop.net Tue Apr 5 12:29:42 2005 From: jeffg at spamcop.net (Jeff G.)

Is there a special advantage of .info domain to spammers? Trivial, just wondering... They worked for years to make it accepted and now let spammers abuse it? As turks, we hated the METU (www.metu.edu.tr) policy of needing real paperwork to give .com (company) and .org domain name, now they say "look at all those lawsuits by legit companies, we were right". Info is new and in this network "hell", they didn't put countermeasures against obviously existing high tech criminals? I mean, I see your post, its not that put @ before domain stuff anymore.

TIA. As a rule, never post anything from your ~ (user) folder to open net, e.g. usenet. All that security exists to protect your home folder in whatever system you use. If you click http://mailsc.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/334.html (or clicked help, like me) you will see Pine stuff. Also nothing except usenet's pine related group can help about pine, its a huge advanced client. Have a nice day Ilgaz From Ilgaz at spamcop.net Thu Apr 14 14:27:24 2005 From: Ilgaz at spamcop.net (Ilgaz Ocal) Date: Thu Apr 14 06:30:03 2005 Subject: [SpamCop-Mail] A mad user test about spamcop.net mail at /. (3 weeks) Message-ID: You would call me mad for it. As it would end up in spammers hands anyway (guys having custom worms) so as I moved to Spamcop mail from Yahoo "plus" (yea, plus without apop even) I had a mad idea. I gave my mail on Slashdot, no "nospam" etc mess added, open mail. I don't get how spammer supposed not to filter those basic additions but anyway... 3 weeks. Total 3 manually sent (no zombie etc) mails from obvious morons and all ended up in my held mail for reporting. One was a big looking French owned market company. I mailed them some stuff about frogs ;) No, not swearing of course. No need to go down their level. Having only 3 mails as spam helped me to check the actual stuff and remember, now a usenet user with my real mail, I didn't have access to usenet for that 3 weeks. Only place given was slashdot. I found it very interesting and mailed to CmdrTaco (founder) about it. I don't know if he read that or not, we speak about slashdot here and that guy is founder... I really wonder his mailbox when he wakes up each day. So, old fashioned harvesters are alive and well, can pass that maniac code of Slashdot even checking your proxy while posting and bravo Spamcop and its users. Or, worse? Worms harvesting mail addresses? Companies? The most blamed one, real networks, using for 20 months their "radiopass" and before like 4 years or more every single real version (like streaming) is clean. Of course, don't tell it on slashdot unless you want -1 mod thing. Gotta love the freedom of speech. Only problem is, I am 2x in more regret I paid yahoo now.. :) Well, I was on beers and Myrealbox (Novell) didn't filter anything (on purpose, they are beta testing) I hope this post is relevant, I think it may give new users (like me) a clue about the power we speak about.

It is waiting for you to determine if it is spam or ham. You need to look through it to see if there is any false positives and then you can report it. Just hitting delete does just that. It deletes it. Without reporting it. You have the option of clicking the Report as spam link that is below the Mark as, or clicking the Report Spam link at the top of the window (next to Held Mail). The Report as spam link quick reports, which only reports the source of the email. The other Report Spam link allows you to choose to quick report some of the spam and make a full report of others. I like to go through the Held Mail to look for any false positives and then click the Report Spam link and go through the list once again. This list shows the actual email address, so I may catch a false positive because of looking at them. Once in this mode, I check all and look through the list and uncheck false positives and any others that I want to spend a little more time reporting. I then quick report the first batch and then Queue for reporting or Forward (and whitelist sender) for the others.
