The problem with image resources is that spammers can use legitimate images from other sites in their E-mails, and in
case of product images such as here, it is not at all clear whether the entity that placed those images there is in any
way related to the spammer.
Of course, there also exist image resources which *are* controlled by the spammer, but the difference is not easy to
spot, especially for automated spam reporting systems such as Spamcop.
I always try to find the link where the spammer hopes to reap the fruits of their effort - either a link to a web page
that the user is supposed to click, or a Reply-To: adress, or an e-mail address embedded in the text. Those are the ones
that go in my spam blocker, and sometimes those are the ones that get reported to their respective abuse desks (but not
really often, as that is a lot of manual work).
Cheers,
Hans-Martin
