Re: [tor-relays] Received abuse complaint - how did this happen?



Webmail services over port 80 record the clients IP address, in this case it's your TOR exit node. You will continue to get this, you can try and set it up so that Spamcop ignores your IP. Otherwise just try to explain the issue to your ISP and hope for the best.
