spamcop
Spamcop must be one of the the biggest piles of shit in existence. As a person who runs a rather large network I have blocked all the traffic from them, including mail for the following reasons:

- their automated system spams admins with spam reports that did not pass any real validation. The same issue gets reported over and over again.

- they tend to block addresses outside the scope of the spamming network (if spam originates from one IP address it does not mean that that whole freaking class C is spamming)

- they are impossible to deal with and tend to keep your block of IPs in the blacklist for days even after the issue is resolved

So my solution to the problem is, ignore the motherfuckers. There are better way to prevent spam like RBL and Vipul's Razor.
