Spamcop users and email administrators get a response from the ISPs.How to stay off a Spamcop blacklistIf you got added to the service’s blacklist but after 12-24 hours, there are no more complaints on your domain, then the service will automatically remove you from the blacklist. What if your blacklist period is much longer than those 24 hours though?Then, unfortunately, getting your IP address unblocked will take some effort, as the service will keep you on the list as long as they get spam complaints on the IP.Fortunately, there are a few easy things you can do to avoid landing on SpamCop blacklists.Don’t buy email listsPurchasing email lists may seem like a quick and easy solution, especially since the sellers will claim that their lists are 100% verified and reliable. In reality, though, those lists are very often made of incorrect, inactive, scraped, or fake emails – and sending your emails to those can quickly land you on a blacklist.And even if there are genuine and active addresses on the lists, the owners never gave you their permission to mail them – so it’s highly likely they will mark your emails as spam.Use opt-in and get permission from recipients before sendingBuilding an email list through opt-ins will take more time, but the results you can expect will also be much better. People who agree to receive messages from you show you that they are interested in your brand, products, or services – and so they are more likely to purchaseGovernment blacklist - SpamCop Blocklist Help - SpamCop
Remitentes de spam. La mayoría de los ISP, alojamientos web, servidores de correo y proveedores de correo electrónico confían en los servicios de SpamCop para detectar y bloquear más rápidamente los dominios que envían spam. Como SCBL les envía automáticamente informes sobre los dominios incluidos en la lista negra (junto con las direcciones IP), los ISP pueden ponerse en contacto directamente con los infractores, en lugar de tener que buscar ellos mismos sus direcciones.Esto les facilita la lucha eficaz contra los spammers, ya que saben inmediatamente a quién deben enviar una advertencia o qué cuentas deben bloquear.Ataca la fuente del spamSpamCop también es más eficaz a la hora de reducir el spam porque bloquea directamente las IP que envían spam, en lugar de limitarse a filtrar los mensajes de correo electrónico o poner en la lista negra dominios concretos. De este modo, todas las cuentas y dominios conectados a una dirección IP determinada se bloquean simultáneamente. Además, el tiempo de permanencia en la lista negra puede ampliarse prácticamente de forma indefinida, siempre que el servicio reciba quejas de spam sobre el número de IP.Si te etiquetan como esta fuente de spam, Spamcop te añade a la lista y tu capacidad de entrega de correo electrónico se reduce. Incluso si envías correos legítimos, los proveedores de servicios de Internet los tratarán como correos basura.Mejora la seguridadLos correos electrónicos con mensajes de ventas o promociones a las que no nos hemos suscrito ya son bastante molestos. Pero lo peor es que hoy en día los mensajes de spam suelen contener archivos adjuntos maliciosos o enlaces a sitios web de phishing. De hecho, el 94% del malware actual se envía por correo electrónico. Así, al bloquear de raíz este tipo de mensajes, SpamCop también aumenta significativamente la seguridad de las cuentas de usuarios particulares y empresas al no permitir que ningún correo sospechoso entre en las bandejas de entrada de los correos comerciales.A medida que disminuye la puntuación de su informe de spam, tiene más posibilidades de llegar a todas las personas de su lista de correo.FiabilidadEn años anteriores, uno de los defectos más mencionados de SpamCop era el altísimo nivel de falsos positivos que tenía el servicio. Como el servicio no verificaba si los correos denunciados por los usuarios eran realmente spam o no, trataba todos los correos que recibía de la misma manera. Esto llevaba a menudo al servicio a filtrar correos importantes o a poner temporalmente en la lista negra direcciones IP legítimas, creyendo que eran spammers.Afortunadamente, gracias al sistema de puntos de reputación de IP y a los algoritmos avanzados, el nivel de falsos positivos de SpamCop es ahora bastante bajo, aunque ocasionalmente aún puede enviar correos electrónicos auténticos a las bandejas de entrada de spam.Contras de SpamCopPuede ser demasiado complejo para usuarios inexpertosA pesar de todas estas ventajas, SpamCop tiene un gran defecto: es bastante difícil de usar. Para sacar todo el partido al servicio, los usuarios deben estar familiarizados con la configuración del servidor de correo electrónico.

This often led the service to filter out important emails or temporarily blacklist legitimate IP addresses, believing them to be spammers.Fortunately, thanks to the IP Reputation Points system and advanced algorithms, SpamCop’s false positives level is now pretty low – though occasionally, it might still send genuine emails to spam inboxes.Cons of SpamCopIt might be too complex for inexperienced usersFor all those benefits, SpamCop, unfortunately, has one major flaw – namely, it’s said to be quite difficult to use. To use the service to its full potential, users need to be familiar with email server configuration and spam reporting.For inexperienced users, learning how they can configure their email account to route the new emails to SpamCop for filtering or how to adjust their filtering settings can be a challenge as well.The reporting spam process is lengthyTo report spam domains, users have to manually copy and paste full spam email headers into a web form and send the report to SpamCop. And while a single report can include even 20 spam headers, adding them all into the report might be pretty time-consuming, especially for businesses that regularly get a large volume of spam messages.What’s more, while SpamCop will immediately report to the ISPs that some of the domains on their network got blacklisted, they have no control over how long it takes the service providers to address the reported issues.So it might, unfortunately, take a while beforeBlacklisted. - SpamCop Reporting Help - SpamCop Discussion
Might trigger the spam filters. For example, using words such as:free, sale, giveaway, win, last chance and others is likely to get you flagged as spam.Send targeted email campaignsThe last thing that can really make a difference both when it comes to your domain reputation and your revenue is list segmentation.Look at an example from SuperOffice, where they’ve prepared and sent two types of campaignsOne was sent to their non-segmented email listThe Second was sent to an email list they had earlier segmented by interest.Results?The first non-segmented email had a 42 % open rate and a 4.5% click-through rate. The segmented one meanwhile had a 94% open rate and a 38% click-through rate! And that’s even though both campaigns had the same content and subject line!By delivering relevant and personalized content to your subscribers, you can enhance their engagement and make them more likely to click on the CTA button – rather than on the “This is spam” one.ConclusionIt might be impossible for us to eliminate spam once and for all, but there are a few ways we can reduce its impact.One of the things we can do is to report suspicious emails to SpamCop so they could cut the problem at the root – meaning, the IP address. You need to stay careful not to land on their blacklist yourself though because getting your IP address off it might be quite difficult – especially if they keep getting complaints on you.And if you want to keep your sender reputation.
