SpamCop FAQ : SpamCop Parsing and Reporting Service : Parsing and reporting spam with SpamCop – decisions, problems : How is data from spam submissions used?
Spam submitted to SpamCop is used in various ways. However, your personal email address is never revealed beyond the initial report, and the email you provide is not released beyond the initial submission. One exception to this – each spam submission generates a tracking URL, and that URL can be used to view the original headers of the spam. This tracking URL is given to you when you report the spam. It is also included in the spam reports. Copies of this URL contain all the information from the original headers. When viewing spam headers from a tracking URL, SpamCop attempts to conceal any email addresses in the header which may belong to the recipient of the email. However, this system is not perfect. It is possible that the header may reveal your email address. IP addresses contained within the header may be scheduled for testing by ORDB, an open relay blocking system. See http://www.ordb.org/ for more information on ORDB. This means that mail servers you use may be probed by ORDB t
