[MDC-EC] Winlink email delivery policy changing August 1

[Steve Beckman]

FYI - Please be aware of this change to Winlink email delivery starting 
August 1.

IMPORTANT - ATTENTION ALL WINLINK 2000 USERS - IMPORTANT

Beginning AUGUST 1, 2008, users with Amateur callsigns will
have their whitelist feature activated. USING THE WHITELIST WILL
NO LONGER BE OPTIONAL.

ANY MESSAGE TO A WINLINK USER FROM THE INTERNET must
be from a sender's address or domain name that is in the recepient's 
whitelist,
OR AS AN OPTION, the sender must include the character sequence
//WL2K in the subject line of the message. If //WL2K is found in the
subject line, the message will be accepted and forwarded to all of the
recepients of the message with amateur callsigns.

Example:
Subject://WL2K (then any other normal subject content to follow).

If the sender is not in the recepient's whitelist and no //WL2K
is found in the subject line the message will be rejected with a
reference to the Winlink WEB page where instructions for sending
WL2K messages will be found. Whitelist notices will no longer be
created and forwarded to recepients.

There will be certain exceptions. Messages from the saildocs.com,
sailmail.com, and mwxc.com and other specific domains will be accepted
unconditionally except where a recepient specifically blocks the domain
name in their whitelist.
