Welcome to the Razor community Richard!

To answer your question: Absolutely not!!!!  Sorry to be so animated on this
subject, but it is one I
am passionate about.

Unless you have email addresses that are definitely receiving 100% spam, you
do not want
pipe them to razor-report.  When you report everything carte blanche to
razor, then it forces everyone else to whitelist those legitimate mailling
lists that you are razoring.  I have had to whitelist mailing list after
mailing list because of people who are using trollboxes incorrectly.

Trollboxes are generally email addresses that have never been a person, that
you made up just to attract spam.  Razor aka Cloudmark aka SpamNet now has
so many users now that it has reached critical mass, and probably does not
need "honeypot" trollboxes any more.

Anyway, look at the list archives for more on this subject if you are
interested.
