One common test for spam is all CAPITALS in the subject line, and "objectionable" material in the
message body.  Perhaps the spam filter on the way to the robot is reacting to these logs.

Jim,

I'm sure the majority of email subjects were callsigns (as is the normal requirement) and usually in
caps. This was clearly a robot message. But as indicated in my earlier post the issue was resolved
by removing the LOCATION: ON line from the Cabrillo file.

Here is the full text of the IARU/ARRL robot message.

Your message to iaruhf at iaru.org could not be processed because the
Subject: of the message
    
        Subject: VE3XD

is not a valid callsign.  Please resubmit your log with an email
Subject: header that looks like this
 
        Subject: your-callsign
 
If you are submitting a log for a special callsign (such as a 1x1 call like N6O), or if you are
unsure why you were sent this error message please contact me at contests at arrl.org to make alternate
arrangements.
 
Thanks for your cooperation.  73.
 
ARRL Contest Branch
