Actually, I think I said we won't look at the message, but that's not
right. We check the message headers to identify messages that were

though, they're not going to go out of our system and back again.

What about forwarding? Many sites have come to some sort of agreement with forwarders, e.g. in order to whitelist them from SPF checks. So if your user reports a forwarded message as spam, you may want to re-send the complaint to the forwarder, just like the Yahoo->Gmail case that has been exemplified earlier.

Now, suppose the report eventually reaches the original author. She may be the first human actually reading it, and realizes that the recipient hit TiS by mistake. Won't she protest? Eventually, the forwarder may send you back the ARF claiming that it has been your user's error and to please readjust their reputation.

What are the addresses involved?
