This method is deprecated but the mechanisms are still in place. The preferred method is for you to have a pop3 mailbox on your system setup as a usertrap where our bots can come and pick up false negatives. A usertrap contains messages that you or your customers (through your review if possible) would like to submit as spam. Messages can be forwarded there - or if you have the technical means you might redirect the messages to this box so that they are in their original (as received) state. Similarly, if you have any clean spamtraps (addresses which receive spam but were never used and will never be used) then their content could be redirected to a spamtrap mailbox on your system where our bots can retrieve it. We treat each type of source with different rules. Usertraps contain messages that may have gone through human hands. Spamtrap contain messages that have never been seen and should not exist (were sent to invalid and/or harvested addresses). If you provide us with the email address (login), fqdn of the pop3 server, and password we can tell our bots to go and collect messages from there and add them to our processing queues. (We poll as frequently as once per minute when traffic is slow).
