Stuff like spamcop is great if it all the info is verified as best as possible rather than relying on everybody knowing how to properly read email headers. (Lest it's not apparent, I'm not disparaging people who can't read headers - it isn't their job to do so.)
Indeed; I think that's its entire raison d'etre (forgive the butchering :-) I agree that the users just want to use the computer and it's jarheads such as ourselves who want to make it work. That's why I'm a SysAdmin, in fact. I sometimes get frustrated with them but it helps to remember why I got into the biz in the first place :-) % % I've never actually seen any sort of report from spamcop in my own postmaster capacity. All the reports I see come to abuse or postmaster or root or some such, and that's invariably from somebody misreading the headers. Heh. Send me some spam and you'll get a note ;-) There may be sample letters at spamcop so that you could see what you'd get. If not, send yourself any old letter, throw it to spamcop, and then be sure you're the only address checked when you submit the report and you'll have a fresh copy. % % % Pete `-_-' % % A jury consists of 12 persons chosen to decide % who has the better lawyer. % -- Robert Frost Thanks & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
