Austech will soon commence an occasional mailout to members. Unfortunately it has become apparent that without doing this (as has been done in the past) people tend to forget about the site.
We dont want to annoy anyone so if you dont want to hear from us, please change your user control panel settings to not receive admin email. We are using a paid solution that does have an unsubscribe link attached to it, so you may not want to bother until you receive one.

I hope to not send multiple email to members, but doing mass emails is difficult these days. Because I havent been doing regular mailouts for a couple years, we have accumulated quite a few dead email addresses. Basically, you automatically get blocked as a spammer once multiple bounce messages start coming in. This is the problem we had last night when I attempted a mail out. I have to find a work around for this problem.
Although the paid product I just purchased will deal with bounced emails for us, it cant deal with them until a mailout happens. Of course a mailout cant happen, because we are blocked because of bounced email.
See why I have no hair ?
Ok, after some support assistance with this I will have another crack at an email tonight.
It looks like this one went out, I have already had someone abusing me
I've received the same email 5 times so far.
Edit-Make it 6 now.

Apologies for that.....I put it through to our hosts support to fix and send and it seems the previous undelivered mail has been redelivered as well. I have deleted the mail queue to stop any more.
Just thought I would make you aware.

didn't forget about the site , just moved onto others sites that catered to my intersts , austech no longer had the same feel ( used to venture to this site under a different name priot to austech getting sold off )
Four for me to
1st and only to me tonight.
I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!
Both copies I have received include the following 2 links:
Clearly both are incorrect (note the ... in the middle).
I've also received 4 identical emails.
They were sent out around every 30 mins between 4 and 6pm this afternoon.
I am glad to have received your email.
I am one of those that has not been a recent visitor.
Have contributed for a year, so far.
I think this a great forum, without it I could not have been able to install a satellite dish and align it.
As well as the information on what is happening with Vast.
So, thanks to all the great knowledge that is coming from some great contributors, well done!

I also received 4 thanks.
I got none/zilch/zero, guess I post too much.
Cheers, Tiny

The information is out there; you just have to let it in."
This thread
should per an e-mail by admin be brought into all members' attention.
Thanks a lot.
I have added a link to the top of the forum and a number of members are promoting it via other websites.
Well, a few blunders with the mailout but nothing that cant be fixed. General feedback was good, only a handfull of loons responded with something nasty which is pretty good
