ARRL.NET Traffic Blocked by Hotmail and Juno

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