Good morning....
I will start with a callsign checker (I have one in XTLF, so that should be no
problem).
I think it should be enough to make sure the connecting callsign is a valid one,
no white or blacklist required. That would be the end of the 'openness' of the
system...
Meanwhile, Gunnar, if the guy send an email then you must have him in your
database....
Could you look and send me his return address? Tnx...

Yes you are right but how do we do a whitelist?
Something like they do on Winlink!
Lets see what Rein and Per comes up with.

At this moment a blacklist would be the easy way to fix the problem.
Starting to use a white list will take a lot of time for each server to ad
all users!
The problem can grow much bigger, if we don`t do something, even if that is a
long shot, spammers do not have HF radios ;-)
I still think that RKR10, RKR011 and RKR12 is some just interested in testing
the program. I have not had any mail problems via my server.
Maybe a Skype meeting would be a good idea at this moment?

Hi,
As noticed yesterday some strange callsigns are checking on to my server.

RKR010 is giving his position to Alkmaar in Holland!?
I think that he/she was using my server to send one e-mail but I am not sure.
Deleted emails before knowing about the callsign. I know that the email was not
used for spam or anything not correct.
The position can be put anywhere one likes so that is not for sure that he is
there at all.
The second one RKR12 can not be found on aprs.fi, but I don´t think he is in
Holland due to the fact that the band has almost never been open at 5AM UTC
before!!
I think that the person that is doing this is just an interested radioperson
without a certificate and that just made the callsign up to do a test of a
great program but that is not ok and therefore I think it´s high time for some
type of database.
