I would love an option to delete SPAM only if it is successfully bounced. That way I can push the remaining SPAM through SpamCop. As it stands it gets deleted but you only find out if it has been successfully bounced after it has gone. I know you can effectively do this by unchecking the delete column but then you have to go back and delete all the successful bounces - really annoying. Otherwise a piece of digital brilliance.

Man I agree with you 100% As Im certainly NOT shy when it comes to working at tracking down the spoofers!

And while I certainly wouldn't want to put the fine people at firetrust out of business. I think that a universal "worldwide" law needs to be introduced that requires, without any exceptions, that when an email is sent from a machine that a "Unique Digital Fingerprint" MUST be included that positively identifies the senders location 100%. If the emails don't have this, servers would automatically reject the emails.

Simple, elegant and would STOP the vast majority of spammers dead in their tracks.

I believe that ISP worldwide would easily embrace something like this and legitimate "Email" program providers wouldn't have that much trouble incorporating this into new clients or patching old ones.

It's not good enough that placers like Hotmail and Yahoo offer spam protection from their subscribers but do little if nothing to halt all the spoofers out there!
