Spamcop is a service that fights spam in email. Spamcop works by providing a place to report spam you receive. The IP addresses from which the spam originates are added to a spam blocking list that you can use to block unwanted emails. The service is free, but it must be configured properly to work on your mail server.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
