# claws-mail-spam-report(7)

report spam messages to various sites

## NAME

claws-mail-spam-report - report spam messages to various sites

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **claws-mail-spam-report** package.

This manual page was written for the Debian™ distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**claws-mail-spam-report** is a plugin (loadable module) for the *Claws* *Mail* mailer.

This plugin allows sending reports about received spam messages to online spam harvesters, in order to improve the shared databases of known spam.

Support includes two Internet sites: signal-spam.fr¹ and spamcop.net², and also the Debian lists spam nomination system³.

## USAGE

Before using a plugin you must instruct *Claws Mail* to load it on startup.

For this you must go “Configuration” menu on main window toolbar, open “Plugins...” dialog, click on the “Load plugin...” button and select the plugin file, named **spam\_report.so**, and press the “Open” button.
