I don't filter my mail through SpamCop, but I do use it for reporting
spam. This at least makes whacking the moles feasible -- if I had to
investigate every spam manually, there wouldn't be enough time in the
day for that alone, much less for anything else. So I too strongly
support SpamCop.
Combined with an ISP that's aggressive about blocking spam -- probably
the more important element -- my spam runs at a level that I can deal
with. Even more promising, I see virtually no spam from North America,
Europe or Australia ... almost all now originates or is relayed through
southeast Asia. This tells me that we are winning the spam fight, and
that applying the same technical fixes in Asia that worked in the first
world will stop most of the spam.
