SpamCop, while great, sucks now ...

I've been so overwhelmed the last few weeks with more spam than usual that I fired up spamcop and submitted a ton of them.

BUT, unlike the old days, where I could blast off reports to everyone and their sisters, it appears the reports are only going to the IP address of the spammer!

So basically the complaints will fall on deaf ears ...

Anyone having a similar prob? Is there something better these days?

I know what you mean; they had to drop some of the extras because people were blind-firing complaints, without actually checking over things, resulting in many a website/email being improperly labeled as spam related when it wasn't. That said however, the RBL still seems to be just as effective as ever, so I don't consider SpamCop any worse for it.

SpamBayes - I've gone from 50-100 spams/day to 1-2 at the most. Lots of days zero spam.
