Subject: VACList Update - 7/15
The Vintage AIrstream Club List is running again, but with a few twists.
I was able to correct the problem by which someone was able to "spam"
(flood) the VACList address with thousands of phony e-mails, thereby
shutting down the email account. That won't happen again. I don't
think it was intentional against the VAC, but was a random act.
The bad news - subscriber options such as individual e-mail or Digest
format, active or on vacation hold etc. was lost. About 1/3 of all
subscribers fell into these categories.
So, as to not wipe these people out, I've set everyone to a default of
receiving the once a day summary (Digest) of all the postings.
If you wish to change back to receiving each post as an individual
e-mail, you will need to go to the ListOfiice webpage and enter your
e-mail address and select the button by the individual postings, and
then hit submit

With all the kooks out there, and the popularity of this List, I've
elected to upgrade the List software in 2 weeks to make it run smoother
and be defensible against outside attack. This is in addition to full
virus screening and power supply backup already in place. (this has
become a serious set-up!!
Thanks for you patience. Another posting will follow with the software
change announcements in about 2 weeks.

RJ Dial
