For a Winlink user to receive a message, the sender's address must be listed in the recipient's whitelist (the accept list) All Winlink accounts have this feature to purposely block mail from the internet that is not expected or permitted. This filter can be bypassed--and the mail will be delivered even if the sender is NOT on the recipient's whitelist--by including a special keyword in the subject line of the message
