Hi Alan,
Your previous messages, including from yesterday were rejected:
List: WriteLog@contesting.com
From: k7acz@cox.net
Subject: Rejected emails.
Reason: Message body is too big: 43471 bytes with a limit of 40 KB
I think you mentioned in the past that you already discovered your email
signature was too large? That appears to be the case still ... ?
Onto the NVQP -- I previously posted that this was a bug in the NVQP module in
WriteLog and that I would fix it. In fact, I have fixed this and it was sent
out to the beta testers late last week. Its now accepting those ARRL/RAC
sections as it should.
Thanks,
Steve N9OH
