It would be useful to put an example into SpamCop to get a tracker. You 
can choose to cancel the reports, or if it's old spam, SC will refuse to 
send the reports.

With the tracker to an example, often one sees X-headers that are 
inserted by any spam filters. Plus, we'd see what path the email is 
going through.
