<font size="4">It is with a heavy heart that I have to report that I
have just deleted over a thousand subscription requests from my
inbox for all of the DXSpider mailing lists. By far the majority
of these were spam. It is possible that there were a few genuine
ones amongst them - and to those people I apologise. <br>
<br>
I am getting rather irritated doing all this unnecessary
administration and I shall now be looking for a better solution
which, may (reluctantly), involve moving to another platform which
might be Google groups. I am open to other/better suggestions. <br>
<br>
In the next few days I will be closing the lists to new users
after I have updated the website to say something like this:<br>

The mailing lists are open to all genuine radio amateurs but,
because of all the subscription request spam I have received, I
will only accept new members who send me a personal email to
'<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:gb7djk@gmail.com">gb7djk@gmail.com</a>', with a subject line that says something like:
'subscribe dxspider-support', with your name, callsign and country
in the body of the email. <br>
<br>
These details will be checked by looking in the usual places. <br>
