Would it be reasonable to make Mark as SPAM available to non
adminstrators in one or both of the following ways:
(a) the user whose address is abused should be allowed to Mark as SPAM
(b) (complex and possibly vulnerable to DoS) any user could be allowed
to Mark as SPAM
- admins would need a Mark as HAM command, and explicitly marked
HAM is not possible to mark as SPAM without admin privileges
- create a report which looks for recently Marked as SPAM events
so that admins and/or volunteers could check for abuse of the
