[Scspamcop] new twist on unreportable spam

Hello,

Earlier I had opened up a discussion on spam as not being reportable.

As a test, I have setup a Google Mail account to check my POP3 account 
to see what would happen if I got some of this mal-formed mail.

The tracking URL that I reported today's spam from my POP3 account is 
http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z2386669421z8fd318d1b9845e8082b9e74e1658f7f0z.

The tracking URL for the Google Mail version of the message is 
http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z2386822367z57a73f2991003585a733df61231c37fdz.

The report from the Google Mail version is what I would expect.

A couple of questions:
1. Why can Spamcop parse the Google Mail version properly?
2. Please confirm that the Google Mail version does not implicate Google 
Mail as a spammer. I don't think that it does.

Thanks much!!
Gary
