I am having a problem with sending emails as it looks
that the c0ldhost IP is banned via spamcop.com on
numerous servers. I'd like to know what I can do in
order to do business and contact my customers as I'm
having multiple emails returned due to this issue.

I've included a portion of two emails I've received
within the last day...

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one

SMTP error from remote mailer after initial

Thank you

You should flush the spammer out of your system first, and then go to Spamcop and prove to them that you have done whats neccesary.

how do i know someone is spamming off my server? in WHM? if so how

[DangerMouse]

Here you go... take a look at the Spamcop black list... it has samples of the spam that came from your server...

http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=ch...66.246.43.102+

That should give you a bit to work on.

ok thank you for helping

No probs.

You might also want to install MailMon on your server to limit people abusing sendmail and tell you who is sending out mass emails.

Good luck.
