Hi WazoO

I also have high cholesterol, and though I have shared that health concern with other people who are coaching me on my diet, I have not assumed that the condition is universal.  I asked about my own settings, and one thing I decided to do today was remove all the whitelisted addresses to see if that had an effect -- I had over 13 pages, including some that I did not know anymore and also people I have not corresponded with in years.  I also cleaned out all the blacklisted except one which I know is still active.  Like cholesterol, both lists grow over the years.

In any case, the webmail blacklist was more dark gray than black because some would sneak through, but I would report them too.

Historical average processing time is a collectable number, and I have hundreds of emails to document processing times since I joined on May 3, 2001.  I'm even looking at some test emails I sent myself in May 2001, and there are time headers there.

I have sent some new tests from several emails and will see what types of numeric results I get.  I have both ISP mail and also web-hosting-based mail and there are other combinations I can try on my side.  What makes my new tests different though is sending simultaneously to the non-filtered ISP email and the filtered spamcop email, which is doubtless an apples-for-apples comparison to factor out network load.

What I know is that an email I sent to my ISP (bellsouth) takes 18 seconds (just now) but I'm waiting for the spamcop email.  

I won't be sharing headers in this public newsgroup but I will post again when I have statistics.

Other subscribers might provide insight on this newsgroup.

  Your complaint is not universal.  A set of headers to demonstrate
  that it is a SpamCop e-mail problem would help.

  Why not compare notes with other e-mail account holders in
  the Forum?
