The reporting address comes from the whois data as shown below.
There could be couple of ways to direct the reports to the GNOME
sysadmins: a) assign an own netblock for GNOME, b) create an "ISP
account" for GNOME sysadmins at Spamcop.
I'll try the b) way, and try creating such account using
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as the handle.
