Yes, mailing lists constitute an exception in dealing with abuse reports. So long as you know the user did subscribe, auto-unsubscribe is the only action that makes sense. Mail admins who have no spammers among their users --like most of us, I'd guess-- must have a somewhat limited perspective of the usefulness of abuse reports in the general case. Yet, I'm planning to set up spam reporting in a way similar to what AOL does, sooner or later. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
