Do you know of any servers that support that mechanism? It's an ad-hoc hint aimed for humans, not MTAs. This is an entirely different kettle of fish than the "implemented in software" stuff represented by the "Adding a spam button" thread. A ad-hoc hack, not a expected-to-be header-handled-automatically one. > And, it should be called report-abuse-to, not abuse-report-to. There are several different ad-hoc headers currently in use.
