IMHO it is more important to focus on _how_ and _where_, the answers
being, respectively, ARF and abuse@<authserv-id>, where the latter is
defined in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5451#section-2.3 Note that users
have to configure their clients specifying which authserv-id they trust
for each account. This stone can kill both birds.

Except that that isn't, I presume, the way these buttons currently work - except when somebody is subscribed to a feedback loop. It seems over-complicated and inefficient (even with BURL) to send an ARF to your own system admin, and rather more simple to just set a flag or annotation on the IMAP server.

Apart from that, a standard way of telling the server side spam filter that it's made a mistake would be useful.
