Christian Voice still has "real" QSLs. I received a QSL-letter from them 
for a July reception report. The letter was mailed from their London 
headquarter even though my report was sent to their Private Mailbag 
address in Lusaka. The letter, by the way, was exactly the same as Daniel 
and Giovanni received by e-mail (except that it was a WRITTEN one of 
course...)

If you want to have a "real" QSL from them, you'll probably have to 
explicitly say so when sending a reception report especially if you send 
your report by electronic mail.

Apart from Christian Voice, a few other stations also verify reports with 
an electronic QSL via e-mail. To my knowledge, VOA, Christian Science 
Monitor and WRMI/Radio Copan Int. does this for reports sent to them by 
electronic mail. There are probably other stations doing the same too.
