I'm still on paper (pre eld engine) but this was great info I also had no idea and will be a great reference for when i do end back up on elogs. I don't think all companies are on the page with this rule. The smaller ones at least. Great info Bill.

J.B. Hunt has their own pre-printed paper log books. First few pages (or was it last few, forget now...) has the elog procedures in them. Will have to go look now to see if it includes the emailing thing or not.

Of course as Jamie mentioned to me Schneider (like JBH) is transitioning from fixed-mount elogs to removable tablets. I believe the procedures are different for the different devices. Also... updates designed for tablets seemed to cause issues for the older devices... at least that's what my former trainer kept saying...
