Another thing to consider, is that the "Spam" button in some MUAs and some web 
mail providers, is lookalike the delete button, so newbie users may make it 
wrong.I have even seen providers making "Spam" the default action, so you have 
to push an arrow and select "delete" in an dropdown to convert the "Spam" into 
a delete button.A third thing is that some providers may use behaviroual 
analysis to detect spam. For example, if a user deletes a mail without opening 
it, it trips the spam report mechanism.(when the user actually wants the mail, 
but don't feel any neccesity to read it.. like "Thank you for your order" - 
yeah I know what it is *deletes*, i know I get a second mail with shipping 
information later that I open)I personally think an "Report Spam" button should 
have some sort of confirmation, so they are fully aware they are actually 
reporting the email as spam, and maybe a dropdown like:--> I actually want this 
email, just deleting it (default)--> I don't want this particular email from 
this sender, but I want other emails from this sender (Trips an filter rule to 
sort these mails as spam, WITHOUT tripping spam report)--> I don't want any 
emails from this particular sender, but the domain is fine (trips the spam 
reporting mechanism)--> I don't want any emails from this domain at all (Trips 
spam reporting mechanism AND reports it to provider abuse, eventually ending up 
the sender domain/MX on a DSNBL)Forcing user to make an active selection. Of 
course, multiple emails should be possible to check and report, so you only 
need to select one action that applies to all checked emails.

mailop@mailop.org Ämne: Re: [mailop] Delivery Reports, requested by Microsoft 
Outlook customer, reported as Spam by same Mic 
Suppression lists. All the big transactional email providers have them. We do 
it with feedback loops, if someone reports a legitimate and desired email as 
spam then we block them from our entire platform. The person who wants to send 
mail to them can try to reason with them and get the block removed, but very 
rarely does anyone care to (because they're not happy about their recipient 
reporting them as spam either).
Of course, you have to consider the source as well. For example, if we get a 
feedback loop message from Fastmail we don't add it to the suppression list. 
Because their default behavior is that they forward everything they filter to 
their user's spam folder back to the feedback loop. So a user doesn't have to 
do anything for this to happen other than not change default settings. Comcast 
users frequently claim they're just deleting the email when it comes in over 
the feedback loop (often months later) but I don't buy it, I still put those on 
the suppression list.
