Just a notification to you guys using volksport.net email that due to an increasing number of SPAM emails hitting the volksport.net mail server I have enabled SpamAssassin for the domain. This should help reduce the amount. Although we have not been getting an overwhelming amount (I get about 4-5 a day), I still find it annoying enough. Not sure how we got on someone’s radar, but we did.

There is the chance that enabling this, stops some wanted mail from getting in. If you find that you are not getting emails that you should be (from friends or whatnot), let me know and I will add them to the filters.

I have done a total revamp of the VKG site . There is still some cosmetic work to be done and a little functionality tweaking, but it is mostly there. VKG members will receive an email shortly with instructions on how to register (or you can email me if you want them sooner). Only VKG members will be allowed to register and post content, pics and such. The site will of course be open to the public, they just can't post content.

There are a ton of feature available and were the driving reasons for me making the changes to the site. VKG members can now create and post to their own image galleries (you should have one for your car and one for your project build) and create and maintain Blogs on your project (basically your own project build site). Gruppe articles and newsletters will be posted as well as many other functions. The site will be a rich and content filled as you Gruppe members make it. So make it a site worth visiting for others.

Hope you enjoy it and look for more enhancements coming.
