I read up on the FAQ about this and they pretty much said that the
problem is that our mail server accepts all mail, then determines
whether it can deliver it, and if it can't at that point it bounces
it. They say we need to change the settings in IMail to bounce mail
immediately
Hopefully, it sends a 550 -
unkownaddressee - error, rather than a bounce message.

Usually it means the first 'opt in' you were slammed into the list without
your knowledge or permission then when you get the first UCE you have the
option of confirming or unjoining (thus the double opt-in language)

Hey guys,
Um, did you really think I don't know what double opt-in is? I *am*

But spamcops flawed idea of - send one piece of spam and you are a

That idea IS stupid
But the SPAMCOP test doesn't work like that First, it requires multiple

From http://spamcopnet/blshtml, we find that The reports of spam from a
system are weighted against the amount of mail from the same system to

thing that the SPAMCOP test knows about you When Declude saw your E-mail
here, it asked SPAMCOP what it knows
We use SpamCop as well on our Declude system and usually see pretty
good information from it.
However, we had an e-mail from them yesterday giving us information
about a Spamvertised website.
From what we can tell from this confusing message they sent to us is
