SPAMReporter is an email header analyzer and reporting tool. It does not filter or prevent any spam, but allows you to determine the origin and then send a complaint email to the network administrator that is hosting the spammer service. To do this, you have to copy and paste the email headers into the program and start the processing; when the address is determined, the program will also search out the proper email address to send a complaint to. SPAMReporter is a powerful tool to stop Spam at the source. Your weapon to help battle the flood of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) that is increasingly becoming a deterrant to the effective use of email. The vast majority of SPAM that you receive in your inbox does not come directly from the Spammer but comes from an innocent Internet user whose computer has been compromised by these Spammers. This is done either by utilizing the a misconfigured mail or proxy server, infecting the user with a special virus or trojan, or by traditional 'hacking' of the system.While we cannot determine exactly how this innocent user has been used, we can identify them to their Internet Service Provider (ISP) which will take actions with this user to ensure it does not happen again.Most ISPs User Acceptance Policy (UAP) or Terms of Service clearly spell out that this activity is not condoned. Whether the user is deliberatly spamming or is an innocent pawn used by the real spammer, and when identified, the ISP will usually close or suspend their account until a resolution to the problem is accepted. The result? Less spam for us.SPAMReporter works by attempting to identify the originating Internet Protocol (IP) address by means of the Internet email header. Much of this information is routinely forged by the clever spammer in an attempt to throw us off their trail. Unlike other reporting tools, SPAMReporter actively attempts to determine which of the header information is fake and which is genuine. Once SPAMReporter determines the originating IP address, it will then attempt to find contact information for the owner of that IP. This generally is the ISP.After the email address of the ISP is located, a complaint message will be created containing all the data the ISP need to identify the user.. All you have to do do, is click on Send.
