As of today we will no longer be sending out Birthday Emails to members.

Due to the large amount of accounts accumulated over the last 10 years, we have many accounts with dead email addresses which bounce back. On some days we are now getting large bounce amounts which are triggering complaints via spam services such as Spamhaus and if we don't disable them, well, no one will host us as we will have continued black banned IP addresses. I am acting on an official complaint from our host. Unlike most complaints, this isn't a malicious one from an individual.

Its a pity as the reply email to these emails is mine, and at least a dozen times a week a member will reply saying thanks very much and even that it made their day. Occasionally I will reply personally and say have a great day or similar.

Cheers
