##### 9.18.6.3 Gmane Spam Reporting

— Variable: gnus-group-spam-exit-processor-report-gmane

> Add this symbol to a group's `spam-process` parameter by customizing the group parameters or the `gnus-spam-process-newsgroups` variable. When this symbol is added to a group's `spam-process` parameter, the spam-marked articles groups will be reported to the Gmane administrators via a HTTP request.

> Gmane can be found at http://gmane.org.

> WARNING

> Instead of the obsolete `gnus-group-spam-exit-processor-report-gmane`, it is recommended that you use `(spam spam-use-gmane)`. Everything will work the same way, we promise.

— Variable: spam-report-gmane-use-article-number

> This variable is `t` by default. Set it to `nil` if you are running your own news server, for instance, and the local article numbers don't correspond to the Gmane article numbers. When `spam-report-gmane-use-article-number` is `nil`, `spam-report.el` will fetch the number from the article headers.

— Variable: spam-report-user-mail-address

> Mail address exposed in the User-Agent spam reports to Gmane. It allows the Gmane administrators to contact you in case of misreports. The default is `user-mail-address`.
