If I may - here is one of the so called email that you referred to.

this message was from a ham at sea from last week.
It looked just like a message from the ARRL system.

look at all of hams at sea there at this URL

http://winlink.org/positions/PosReports.aspx


This message text just said:
Should arrive Sydney within 48 hours on the 
8th.

Addressed
St. Paul, MN
phone number 
e mail address.

Just like a ARRL message it has an email address attached just
in case that last station is not close and will not have to make
a toll call.

Can you tell me why you think that all the messages passed on the 
winlink system is email?

Why do I feel that you have *never* copied any of this traffic and are
just going by what you read or have been told? That's too bad because
neither have the people you have been listing too.
