Excellent - did you send an electronic report? Less stations send cards now
but an email "QSL" is so uninspiring.

Oh dear...I just sent them a snail mail report with return postage.
Still, maybe I'll get a real card. I agree with Mike, the e-QSLs just
lack something. I guess I miss the stamps, and the personal writing.
Just pining for the good old days of DX in the late 60s and early 70s.

For e-mail QSLs I use my CD case liner making software to
create a 2 sided "card" that will fit in my QSL sleeves (about the size
of 3x5 photo holders a normal album holds).
Side one is an appropriate picture for said station and side two is a
copy/paste of the e-mail text confirming reception. Print, crop, fold
and put in sleeve. Looks great.
Do a couple of practice ones to get the size right. Make a template if
possible and you can whip one out in a couple of minutes.
