Outlook express gmail can now be sent from Club

Our Clubhouse network server and firewall software has been reconfigured (thanks to Peter Bayliss).

This means that members who have gmail accounts can now send e-mail from POP software (e.g. Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird) using the Club's ADSL internet connection.

Founder member Sylvia Schofield, RIP

Founder Club member, Sylvia Schofield, died on April 5th, aged 89.
She was a very interesting person- see obituary in the Telegraph on-line

Much of her writing was using an Amstrad PCW; though she had problems making the switch to Windows, especially with her failing eyesight.

A few years ago she donated a collection of archeological items from Afghanistan to the Javea Museum.
