How to set up SpamCop |

SpamCop is a third party reporting service that enables you to take action against spammers.

MailWasher Pro allows you to submit to SpamCop the junk mail you receive and help fight against spam. When email is received by SpamCop, they parse the headers of unwanted email and phrase a complaint to the system administrator responsible for the spammer's Internet access.

The complaint is addressed from a blind SpamCop.net email address, however any responses to that address will be routed to the email address you have provided with your SpamCop account. Every message you submit to SpamCop generates an auto reply back to you, and you need to confirm that you do want to follow through with the complaint via a web interface.

Before you can submit email to SpamCop, you must sign up for a SpamCop account and obtain a SpamCop email address. For more information and to find out how to do this, see http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/285.html.
