Put your fully framed question into the body of a news message not part

paste part of the subject into the body of his reply in order to
properly contextualize the response.

Did you read the faq which was required when you registered for your
authorization?  You should not be submitting any spam until you have
read the faq.

Yes it may be possible to submit spam to the parser for the parsing
reporting function which is the same as the parsing reporting function
of the webparser with the correct mailuser agent, but it is better to
use the webparser first to gain experience with seeing various pages of
the spamcop interface and because it is easier to troubleshoot any
problems when the webparser is being used.

In order to use the webparser for experience you should go to this page
http://www.spamcop.net/  and login with your address and password

> What is the E-mail Address to report?

If you go to the above page logged in, the submit address is seen in
this format:

Forward your spam to: [email protected] or:
Paste entire spam (headers, blank line, body) - or - single address (one
line only):

where the 'term' 16charANcodeNMBR is your personal code for submitting
which should be kept secret.

> How must be composed the E-mail?

First use the webparser according to the instructions you saw when you
registered and got your authorization.  By using the webparser, you will
be able to tell if you have learned how to get the spam with complete
headers as described in the faq
http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/19.html  How do I get my email
program to reveal the full, unmodified email?

Then, after you know how to use the webparser, see if the faq link above
tells you how to use your mailuser agent to email submit.

> I'm registered, thus have an E-mail address with password

Did you read the faq?
