<p>You <strong>MUST</strong> include the following two words (separated by a space) in the subject of your email, otherwise the email will be rejected:</p>
<pre><code> IOCCC YYYY</code></pre>
<p><strong>IMPORTANT:</strong> The <em>YYYY</em> in the above email address <strong>MUST</strong> be changed to the current 4 digit year!</p>
<p><strong>IMPORTANT:</strong> Do <strong>NOT</strong> immediately proceed nor follow the two words with punctuation. For example, neither <code>IOCCC 2025.</code> <strong>NOR</strong> <code>Re:IOCCC 2025</code> will work in the subject line because there are non-whitespace characters next to the 2 words! Instead use <code>IOCCC 2025 question.</code> or <code>Re: IOCCC 2025</code> or just <code>IOCCC 2025</code> on the subject line.</p>
<p><strong>PLEASE NOTE:</strong> Do <strong>NOT</strong> immediately proceed nor follow the two words with punctuation!</p>
<p>The subject line for an email should not contain something such as
<code>IOCCC YYYY.</code> or <code>Re:IOCCC YYYY</code> because there are non-whitespace
characters right next to the 2 words. Instead, try something like
<code>I have an IOCCC YYYY question.</code> or <code>Re: IOCCC YYYY</code> or just <code>IOCCC YYYY</code>
on the subject line. And of course, replace <code>YYYY</code> in these examples
with the current 4-digit year.</p>
