"Good evening everyone. I have two questions. As a ""newbie"" to this VA, if I understand correctly, I have to wait until I receive my website password to be able to fly my 1st probationary flight. Is this correct? Just wondering since I have not gotten my password yet, altho it's only been a few days. 2nd question is regarding FSFlight Keeper. I was a beta-tester for this nice software, so I have a registered version. One of the entries needed to be put in the setup for flight filing is an SMTP along with your email address. Good ol' MSN doesnt offer the POP3 (or SMTP) options unless you want to pay extra for them. Of course, this is ""to help control spam"", as I was told. Sheesh. Anyway, does the VA REQUIRE you to have the SMTP/POP3 servers to be able to use FSFK? If so, I'll not be able to use it. Thanx! -Rick Schaefer"

"Hi Rick and welcome aboard! Answers: 1. I will reset your password which will send you a generated email with that password then you can log in and change it. Clarification: we don't have probationary flights, we use a probationary period as outlined in the Pilot Manual/NOTAM's forum. 2. The email related information is not required except for the email backup of pireps. If you have problems uploading your pirep to the webservice, you will be unable to send your Region Manager the email version of the pirep which will make things difficult. Therefore, use no email backup at your own risk <!--emo&;)-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> Short answer: no, not required to operate FSFK with GC. Justin"
