Grandmothers can understand how spamcop works.  Just listen and don't be 
over sensitive to the way people express themselves or bashful about asking 
questions.

Never too old Teri.  You've looked at the SpamCop FAQ - 
http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/285.html and don't follow?  Does 
http://www.rickconner.net/spamweb/spam-transmission.html help set the 
scene?  Other resources include http://forum.spamcop.net/scwik/PageIndex 
(for instance an expanation of MX record, etc.).  An expansion (by other 
users) of the official FAQ at 
http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=2238

Instances of how people use SpamCop in the Wiki (above) under "H" for

How I use SpamCop and/or 
http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showforum=13

Lots to look at - "Reader's Digest" versions at 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpamCop and

This is the place to learn about spam.  Read what is posted here and 
look at your spam reports to see what is going on.  If you don't 
understand ask on this newsgroup, the people here are very helpful.

You are never too old to learn, I am a great grandfather.  I have 
learned a lot reading the messages on this newsgroup.

Sorry to but in but that is the theme of the news group
news:uk.people.silversurfers where we welcome all ages in spite of the
group name.  No question is stupid.  Just something you don't know
about.

You might like to lurk/post in the above group where we have a couple
of Aussies.
