Phising e-mail.

Did your Phising e-mail go down? Tried to forward an e-mail about mine account being suspended with a Cox header & it bounced.

Same here ... got the message when trying to forward:

"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded:  5.2.0 b4tT1p0050njaCL014tTq7 This message was undeliverable. This message has been found to be a potential spam message, and has therefore been blocked. Please visit http://ww2.cox.com/coxagainstspam for more information.. Please check the message and try again."

What good is a phishing reporting site which blocks reporting email?

It's sounding like the filter were already updated to catch this most recent phishing attempt prior to efforts to report it.  Thanks for taking the time to try and report this.

The phishing mail in question came in to my wife's email yesterday afternoon.  She didn't notice it until this morning.  It came through as normal email, it wasn't marked as spam by Cox's spam filters but was caught by Thunderbird's filter.

I suspect that between the time it arrived and the time you saw it somebody else had successfully reported it.
