Hi guys,
As a newcomer, I am checking the system, to learn all the possibilities.
I see that I can modify any eQSL sent in the past, regardless the receiver already displayed or archived it. how can it be?
I mean, when I change somethng in the delivered eQSL, does it change in the card the destinatary already archived? If so, I foresee a big deal, because your archive can change without your consent.
If no, I do not see the point why the system allow me to modify it.
Well, I am sure, this question is already sorted out, but I would appreciate your input.
Thansk and kindest regards,
Iñaki

Yes I see that if I look in my Log/Outbox that I can edit cards that have already been sent and confirmed by the other station. I agree with you that this doesn't seem right. I think that earlier on I may have even deleted one of these cards by accident when I didn't quite understand what I was doing.

Can one of the aministrators comment on why editing of sent and confirmed cards is permitted. I don't that should be allowed

Yes, and I am afraid one can even spoil any of other members awards, by deleting cards already delivered!!!
Tomorrow you can have less countries certified than today!!!!
What if a member leaves the system and delete all your outbox?
Yes, I would appreciate if any administrator assist us...

As I get each card I save them to my hardrive. I have set up directories

eQSL/N1UK/80mssb

eQSL/N1UK/80mcw

eQSL/N1UK/40mssb

I save the card under the station's callsign, so at least I have a record of the cards that I received.

So do I Mark, but I am afraid they will not be valid for any eAward, as eAwards are based on the eQSL you have in your "archive box" within nthe system, and it is unbelievable that "your archive" can be changed by others.
Let's compare with paper QSLs. Once you send one QSL, you CANNOT modify/delete/destroy it. It is not your property anymore, and it belongs to the recipient of the card, not to the sender.
If you worked me last year, and I decide to leave the hobby, the QSL you got is yours and valid for any award and for ever.
Why not in eQSL?
Worried regards.....

Yes I agree. In fact I think that I did delete a sent and archived QSL by accident and I don't know how to tell which one it was. I am more careful now but it shouldn't be allowed by the system.
