Jason, >From what I can see on the Spamcop web site the way they decide whether a message should be blacklisted is not solely based on one report. Instead it is based on how many different people submit it, among other things. As long as I'm only submitting unique messages that I am 100% sure are spam then I think I would be helping to enforce the algorithm that Spamcop uses to decide whether messages which are being submitted are spam or not. I'm not talking about submitting thousands of e-mails a day. I think I my current setup deletes about 1200 messages a week.
Any feedback on my other 2 questions?
