Abstract: A method for user reporting of spam mobile messages includes causing mobile messages to pass through a filter node prior to delivery to a user and, in the filter node, creating a record corresponding to each mobile message. The record includes metadata extracted from the mobile message and the content of the mobile message. Each record is stored in an archive and each message is then routed to the user. The method also includes receiving a report message from the user indicating that a mobile message received by the user is a spam mobile message, retrieving the record corresponding to the spam mobile message from the archive, and associating the metadata in the retrieved record with the report message.
