From the Secretariat:

We have discovered that members with some TDC e-mail addresses are experiencing problems with using the sign-up form for events on the website. This mainly applies to those with  " .mail.dk" or  ".tele.dk" addresses. We are investigating the problem with TDC and hope to reach a solution soon. In the meantime, please just phone or e-mail the secretariat directly.


Kind regards,


Penny Schmith
