SpamCop says that your address is coded somehow. The ISP will not know
your address, but some address @spamcop. If they send their reply,
this will be redirected to you by SpamCop.

I yes, the amount of spam seems to increase, but I think without
SpamCop, it would increase even more. SpamCop make it a point
somewhere on their website that they will not disclose your email
address to anyone.
