The
CSEVC has been operating for about 5 years now, both with our
CSEVC.COM blog
and a Facebook page. In that time we’ve had many new members! As
the
Administrator of our club, I’ve noticed that our records may be
out of date for
many of you, and that many of you may not be receiving our
electronic
newsletters.
In
order to protect your email address when contacting you, we use
a BCC: (blind
carbon copy) feature of most email systems. This means that
other recipients
cannot see your email address. Unfortunately, this also means
that our message
may be interpreted as spam when you receive it. One of the
things some email
systems look for is a large number of BCC: recipients; if they
see it, they
categorize the message as spam and send the message to a folder
on your
computer. Unless you regularly check your spam folder you may
never get our
messages. I am, this time only, using your direct email address
for just a few
addresses at a time.
In
return for making sure you want our information and can receive
it, I’d like to
ask a few things:
1)
Please check your spam folder and see if any of our past
broadcast
messages have been sent there. If so, please “whitelist” my
email address of WHitchings DOT tablet AT gmail DOT com
so
that our future messages aren’t classified as spam.
2)
Please decide if you want our information sent to you. If
you have no
use for our newsletter, or simply don’t participate in the club
anymore, do
nothing. I will be removing non-responders to this message by
February 1, 2020
(see below).
3)
Please review your listing on our club’s membership page
( http://www.csevc.com/p/member-listing_10.html
) for accuracy. Several of our members are listed as “Model xxx
ordered”. Contact me directly with any updates to your listing.
Note that unless I hear from you by February
1, 2020, I will
remove your listing from our rolls, both club member and
newsletter. I know
this sounds harsh, but the growing amount of time required to
make and send
electronic emails certainly is worth knowing that our members
both want, and
receive, our communications.
Thanks for everything, 2020 looks to be a
busy year! The
club may be looking at some short, perhaps overnight, trips next
year (please
suggest some locations). Potential destinations are Moab (Arches
National
Park), club member’s solar setups, Yosemite National Park, etc.
