ARRL.NET Traffic Blocked by Hotmail and Juno 

NEWINGTON, CT, Nov 25, 2002--Hotmail.com and Juno.com
notified
 

ARRL headquarters notified today that they have stopped
accepting e-mail messages forwarded to users of their
services from the
arrl.net e-mail forwarding server. Almost 6,000 ARRL 
members are affected by this action.

 According to representatives of the two companies, 
this is, in part, their solution to the Internet-wide
problem of spam. The ARRL, through the vendor
for the arrl.net server, is currently working with both of
these
companies to resolve this matter, but an immediate solution
does not
appear to be imminent. Until the matter is resolved, 
the League cannot deliver e-mail through the arrl.net server
to users of the Hotmail or Juno e-mail services.

ARRL apologizes for the inconvenience created by their
decision
and will keep you apprised of progress in the matter.
