You send it to: contest@arrl.org

They need a summary sheet - SUMMARY.DAT and the log in ARRL format.

Use POST L A to produce the ARRL format file - the just 
copy it on to the SUMMARY.DAT file so that you have a file
with the summary sheet first followed by the log.  I edit the 
summary.dat file to include any extra info and I fill 
in the places that are blank for my name, callsign and date - kinda
of like signing it. 

You then just send the entire thing as a plain text email message.
