Valid question. This is what the robot told me when I sent the log on 
Sunday:

(This is an automatic reply.)
 
Your message to ssb@cqww.com could not be processed because the
Subject: of the message
    
        [Fwd: HG6N MOST]

is not a valid callsign.  Please resubmit your log with an email 
Subject: header that looks like this
 
        Subject: your-callsign
 



It was accepted when I sent it without category in the subject field.
