> > is not in the correct place. I can confirm that the problem exists, but: this appears to be a Reporting issue with all three variations of www, members, and mailsc (so I am redirecting followups); and it only occurs for paying customers if they put devnull'd addresses in the "User Notification ... To:" Textbox and check the Checkbox to its left. Fortunately, the other Reports you asked the Parser to send do actually get sent - you can use the "Back" function of your browser to confirm that and get another "Paste entire spam ..." Textbox. -- Best Regards, Jeff G. http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?act=findpost&pid=37585 From micheal.espinola at gmail.com Fri Apr 7 15:22:44 2006 From: micheal.espinola at gmail.com (Micheal Espinola Jr) Date: Fri Apr 7 14:25:02 2006 Subject: [SpamCop-Mail] Is it possible to submit spam via email without having to verify it online?

I'm interpreting your post as being one about reporting spam, not about being a subscriber to the spamcop mail system, which is described here http://www.spamcop.net/ces/individuals.shtml SpamCop Email System for Individuals This newsgroup is about problems with that SC mail system, not about reporting issues, so I'm posting f/ups to my post to spamcop. That group and spamcop.help are for general spam discussion issues, including reporting. Re cumbersome. Do you mean you are pasting the spams into the webparser one at a time and finding that cumbersome, or do you mean you are email submitting many spams at a time and are finding it cumbersome to have to click up each link for the reporting process? > I am trying to report 100+ confirmed spams a day - many of which are > not yet RBL'd. If you are submitting to the webparser one at a time, you can improve efficiency by submitting many spams at a time by email -- but that still requires individually approving the reports by following each parser approval link for regular reporting. Another option is quick reporting, but it has some disadvantages. Regular reporting is a safeguard against spamsource mistakes made by the parser, because each report notify is reporter approved prior to being sent and counted. Regular reporting also provides an opportunity for the spamvertised links to be reported. Another alternative is quick reporting, which has requirements and disadvantages. The requirements for quick reporting are that your request to quick report has to be approved, and you also have to be configured for a mailhosted account, which is described here http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/397.html How do I configure Mailhosts for SpamCop? The advantage of the mailhosted account is that the parser is much less likely to make a mistake in indentifying the source, because the parser is configured to recognize your mailhost. However, the condition or configuration of your mailhost can change unexpectedly, so even having a mailhosted account is not perfect assurance that some parsing error cannot occur. If a reporter is both mailhosted and approved to be a quick reporter, then many spams can be submitted by email at one time, and all of the spams are parsed for spamsource and reported without any approval process by the reporter. That lack of oversight can cause a reporter to report their own mailhost many times if the parser makes an error, which could result in the reporter's own provider becoming blocklisted and causing significant grief to the reporter -- including loss of email account. Another disadvantage to quick reporting depending upon one's point of view is that only spamsource is counted, and there is no parsing for the spamvertiser, and no notification of the spamvertiser's provider. The principle advantage is that it is very fast compared to the regular report approval process. Another advantage, depending on the point of view, is that the spamvertiser provider is not notified. There are many blackhat providers which some reporters would rather not be providing with spam evidence which evidence is only superficially munged with standard SC mungeing. -- Mike Easter kibitzer, not SC admin From micheal.espinola at gmail.com Mon Apr 10 01:37:18 2006 From: micheal.espinola at gmail.com (Micheal Espinola Jr) Date: Mon Apr 10 01:00:26 2006 Subject: [SpamCop-Mail] Re: Is it possible to submit spam via email without having to verify it online?

I am currently forwarding them via email, but I find the need to then interact with the website to complete the reporting process cumbersome. I understand the need for checks and balances to make certain an automated system isnt fowarding out of control - but trying to report spam in this manner (and for this ammount) is very tedious. I am beginning to understand the underlying intent for signing up for spamcop service. I unfortunately cannot allow my mail to flow through your servers for legal reasons. > If you are submitting to the webparser one at a time, you can improve > efficiency by submitting many spams at a time by email -- but that still > requires individually approving the reports by following each parser > approval link for regular reporting.

My 'problem' is that I have already taken this step prior to attempting to report it to spamcop (or any other source that can make use of the information I am trying to pass along) - so this is cumbersome for someone in my position. Granted, everything isnt for everyone. > Another alternative is quick reporting, which has requirements and > disadvantages.

Curiously, with IE, on the opening login screen, nothing shows up below the "Language" window, there is no "Log In" button and no news info or links. When I entered my data and hit enter, IE "beeped at me" and then I noticed that the "Log In" button was not there!

Usually when there's a problem, it's the other way around - the mail works, the reporting system is down. I just popped some mail from SC which was probably there from last night. before the problem started. But two test mailings I just made did not bounce, but are not available for popping. Since they didn't bounce, I would hope that means mail is not getting lost but just "stuck" somewhere in the SC servers.

Not if the MX hosts aren't answering incoming requests...in that case, the sending systems will go away and come back at various intervals to try again. Depending on how long the CESMail servers (which provide service for both spamcop.net and cesmail.net) are having this problem, it can eventually result in lost mail (worst case) or in mail servers that don't come back to try again for up to three days, the way I understand these things (I'm a musician, not an IT person).

(NSURLErrorDomain:-1005) I haven't fired up my MacBook today, but I have gotten several different messages from my three browsers on the XP box: firefox, IE and Mozilla. I think the errors depend on your timeout setting or maybe even your ISP. Regarding your other post, yes, I agree, especially if we get no news. Although it seems suspicious, one can ping the website with normal repsonse. These symptoms have many, so nothing is clear as to the cause, yet. It might simply be a crashed server. There was recent maintenance, right? Usually when one of my clients has a problem, I ask him what the last thing he did was. Usually that is the culprit.

Yes, the source is > currently CBL listed. Oops....I have this paranoid habit of stripping all the SC stuff, as well as the Barracuda firewall stuff, out of messages before I parse/report them. When actually sending spam reports, that's too much information possibly delivered into the hands of spam-friendly hosts, IMO. But when I post a Tracking URL here, I'll be sure to leave all the SC stuff in the headers before parsing.

Even after a problem is fixed, it can take two hours (or more) for the fix to propagate, particularly when you're talking about DNS issues. Not to mention, a lot of cycles are trying to churn through the mail back-up. My hunch is the statement posted is true (though I can't see it yet).

There are some errors that are unknown, really meaning to complex to determine exactly. Buffer overflows, memory glitches, etc. With Microsoft, most errors are of that type.

Others (including me) are seeing the same thing, so it's either a bogged down server, connectivity issues in or around the colo facility, or both.
