I just did a fake send w/ trace information to your vpm address. This logs all email list server decisions and runs through the motions but does not actually do a send. Everything looks fine... the Is this SPAM link was inserted in what would be the actual email sent and all looks good to me.

I am wondering if you are running into the way that Gmail collapses certain email sections on emails received.... Look for a ... (three dots) in the email recieved... click those dots... the Is this SPAM? link is at the very bottom and sometimes Gmail will collapse it.

Ever had one of those challenges that when you find the solution you feel humbled by the simplicity of the answer?

There is a huge amount of white space between the message end and the FTH Is this SPAM? links. Although I had already added her to the black list, I followed your logic through the link and loved that you gave one final are you sure option. Clicking the Yes response added a second version of the same email. I deleted the second one.

Consider me humbled.

If it makes you feel any better, consider that the white space may not be an accident. (We do not add that white space.) The spammer may have added that white space to put the "Is this SPAM?" link out of your view. We put the unsubscribe links at the top of emails these days so that they do not get missed... perhaps the "Is this SPAM?" link should be at the top, also.
