missing GNHLUG mail/GMail/SpamCop/SpamAssassin

[Seth Cohn]

As a gmail user, I've found that spamcop continues to blacklist it
often, and they have gotten way to absurb to continue supporting
them... Spamcop, like most of the anti-spam trackers, have ended up on
the wrong side of cautious, and blacklist sites for the most minor of
infractions.  Shared hosts, for example, find themselves cut off, not
because a spammer was on the same host, but because someone's mailing
list sent email to someone who reported it as spam, rather than
unsubcribe themselves correctly.
