SpamCop FAQ : (Category) SpamCop Parsing and Reporting Service : How does SpamCop reporting work?
There are three main parts to SpamCop; the Reporting Service, Mail Service, and Blocking List. All three operate independently of each other, but they also rely on each other to operate effectively. The reporting service allows you to file complaints with appropriate administrators about spam. These reports generate statistics that are fed to the Blocking Service, automatically keeping it up to date. The Blocking Service in turn helps the Mail Service filter spam from reaching subscriber inboxes. Most of this document deals with spam reporting, however the filtering is a necessary part of a spam-free existence, since some companies don’t take abuse complaints as seriously as they should. Don’t be discouraged though. Reporting alone has been reported to reduce spam by quite a bit. To get an introduction to filtering, check out the Subscribe Now section for details and examples of how it works.
