You're wasting your time - that's now just a black hole!

Wonderful.  I didn't notice the passing of that.
And there was me thinking I was helping.  What a let down.
I take it the only other solution left is via webmail and I don't suppose for a moment you can report them a thousand at a time using that.

If you are getting that many there's something wrong with your email configuration!

Re: Cloudmark - slow to learn?

No, it is my whole F9 domain and has been a target for spammers for as long as I have had it.
It started getting silly back in the days of the Snow White virus when mailwasher released an upgrade which defaulted to bouncing all spam.  I don't actually use it for anything other than reporting the spam which comes to it and sometimes, as it did this last week, it comes in thousands.

What are your settings on the spam tab of http://email.plus.net/ ?

Re: Cloudmark - slow to learn?

Exactly what they have been since that page came into existence.  I get all the mail which gets through level 1 filtering sent to the default domain  mailbox where I pick it up using POP3.  
The fact I may get more spam than seems right could be nothing at all to do with this but may well be something to do with cloudmark not learning and if they are not taking note of spam emails forwarded to an advertised address then really you should not be asking me about how my mail box is configured but ask Plusner why they are ignoring evidence of spam which they could use to reduce yours.

Re: Cloudmark - slow to learn?

Can you say where is the "advertised address"  being shown?
Edit: oo err, found it https://www.plus.net/support/security/spam/reporting_spam_emails.shtml#spam

You found it, well done.  I wonder how many other people have found it and in the belief they are actually doing something to help reduce not just their own but the whole community's spam are continuing to use it?
