[Coco] Reporting SPAM

[Brian Blake]

The latest ones I've been getting (primarily at work, some through my Yahoo address) have been the imbedded images that contain the spam. I've just filtered them by blocking imbedded graphics images in our spam filter at work. This has the side effect of also blocking legitimate message from those who like to use a business card for thier sig, but, oh well.
   
  At home I've had really good luck with MailWasher (their enterprise version sucks), though with the last version i used there was quite a bit of training involved at first.

I have been using Sp at mX for quite some time. It looks through the 
headers and identifies the appropriate abuse contacts for each bit of 
spam.

I still get a lot of spam, but it has come down in volume. It isn't 
possible to eliminate it as spammers are employing new tactics all 
the time.
