The fun thing about http://spamcop.net/ is getting those replies back which say the spammer had been booted. Spamcop used to have a free service (as well as a pay one) - dunno if that's still the case as I liked it well enough to subscribe long ago,. Although I don't have them screen my email, I just paste the full headers in (and the source code if it contains html), click a button and they parse it and prepare separate spam reports to all of the pertinent addresses. All the work of sorting through the fake addresses and parsing the headers is done for you - and (depending on your connection, etc.) it takes about 5 seconds. jeff At 09:35 PM 3/18/2002, lysaabi wrote:
