I suggested reporting "indirectly" via spamcop.net. Spamcop.net can: a) terminate accounts of "miss-reporting" users b) delay sending reports of "fresh" users until "trusted" user reports spam from the same source c) ignore some links e.g. BBC/CNN pages with some catastrophe used in 419 scams d) gently handle reporting of reliable mailing list messages as spam [ such "reporting mistakes" are pretty common for *big* mailing lists ] IMHO such "LART relay service" *like* spamcop.net can significantly increase reliability of spam reports. -- [pl>en: Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home site: http://anfi.homeunix.net/
