I have had a look around the http://www.habeas.com/ website and
can't really see how to check the company in question, or make a
complaint. There is a form for asking them to ask the company to
remove these addresses from their mailing list, but I don't want to
have to do that, I want to complain about the company.
This is a "me too". I had the same problem and came to exactly the
same conclusion: there's no way I could find to notify them that one
of their supposedly squeaky-clean customers is sending spam. I'm
pushing their score down to 0 too.
No way you could find? look harder guys ;)
at the top of www.habeas.com, 'Support', then 'Give Feedback on Habeas
Certified Senders' brings you to this page:
http://www.habeas.com/en-US/Company_Feedback.php
That page says you can also just forward it to complaints /at/
habeas.com.
I did find that page, but got hung up on the bit that says, "Please ask
the Sender to unsubscribe me from this email list. I understand Habeas
cannot guarantee I will be unsubscribed." Which, in my hurry to get to
a meetig this morning, made me assume that this was just another
mechanism to implement unsubscribing, and not a proper complaint procedure.
I will actually report the emails that I have got. But I think I am
going to disable all the HABEAS rules anyway.
Looking into this more, I have disabled the HABEAS checks altogether
(setting score to 0). I did consider the suggestions about lowering the
impact by setting the score to -0.5 or similar, but actually I don't
like the concept of this service, and I would rather save the bandwidth
and not do the checks altogether.
Thanks to everyone for their comments.
