spam and not spam reports bouncing

Hello,

Until recently, I've been able to forward mail which either should be spam or which Cox has flagged as spam, but is not, to either SpamReport@cox.net or ThisIsNotSpam@cox.net. For the last several days, this no longer works, and my forwards are begin bounced. The error message I'm getting is like the following:

<cox-spam@feedback.cloudmark.com>: host 68.1.17.4[68.1.17.4] said: 552

Any idea what's going on, and why this is now failing?

Thanks,

Tim
  • and just like  it suddenly started...it has suddenly stopped.  at least for me. no bouncebacks in the last 3-4 days. 

  • me too!  that's exactly why i'm here.  it seems to be fine for them to let something that might have a virus in it get to MY mailbox, but they're ever so protective of theirs!

    Over the last few days, there has been improvement. Now I am not getting forwards to SpamReport@cox.net bounced back.

    However, I am still seeing forwards to ThisIsNotSpam@cox.net bounced. So, whatever fix was done to make reporting spam work should be applied to reporting non-spam e-mails.

      Tajkkj,

      I would be happy to pass that feedback along to our leadership team.
