Subject: RE: [OT] startling spam, how to cut down on spam
www.spamcop.net Is pretty good for sorting out who really sent you an an
email... even if they've tried to spoof where it came from. You can
then report it (from within spamcop) to the person(s) who should be
concerned (postmasters, domain owners and admins, etc...).
Since I've begun using spamcop, I've been getting less email, most
likely becuase my email address(es) are on a list of "tattlers" or
people NOT to send UCE to.
