[DX] eQSL cards - NOW ACCEPTED - for DXCC

[Charles Johnston]

Hello Ron and list members,
   This is getting out-of-hand and there is some misinformation floating
around .....
    ARRL never before accepted any eQSL card under any conditions at any
time for anybody ever...that is until 08-Feb-2002.  That is what has
changed. Now they accept eQSL confirmations if one uses the eQSL "print
a card" service.  That was - never - the case before.
  Finally here is the text from the eQSL site ..... I hope this is
informative for some of the guys on here...
---------
eQSLs are now accepted for DXCC!
On Friday, February 8, 2002, Bill Moore, NC1L, DXCC Manager for ARRL,
conveyed to us that if our users receive eQSLs and verify that them
against their log (I.e. don't reject them) and use our new Card Mailing
System to have the cards mailed to them using regular mail, those mailed
cards would be accepted for DXCC, because that mechanism is in essence
identical to that of a regular QSL Manager
------------

If that is not plain enough then I do not feel I can do anything further
to clear it up....
