Spamcop madness

FYI,
Spamcom-madness. This example clearly showes the dangers of clueless users
using something like spamcop. I'm glad it was not the RBL. In this case, we
have been harrassed for a couple of weeks by someone spoofing one of our
ipaddresses in spams. The text in this mail is what the
"abuse-responder-on-duty" send back to the complainer, explaining we could not
help him and why. Next thing I know, I get another spamcop report, saying the
friendly reply is a spam!.
