This email is a test....it is only a test.....if this were anything more than a test to be forwarded to the FCC you would have heard more details after the beep.

It has come to my attention that you have selectively blocked incoming emails with "60 day test" in the subject line. This is an attempt to decrease the amount of negative email you receive. Every single one of those emails are legally required to be placed in your public file for a minimum of 3 years. For your sake you better hope this test doesn't come back to me as undeliverable for this reason. If it does it will promptly be delivered to the FCC for investigation. You may not like the opinions of the people, but you are legally required to handle them properly.

Here goes nothing....if it comes back it won't be nothing. Good luck boys. Hope you do better on this test than the 60 day one.
