Dear Naomi and Rick,
I suspect a computer glitch at your end to explain the sending of at least 5 349 K
messages (FIVE!!!, after 5 my email download crashed. It doesn't like large files for
some reason) . If it wasn't computer error, you should be ashamed. I consider ONE
unsolicited 349K file to be intrusive and abusive of the list, especially when most of
it is unreadable formatting garbage which is not converted by my browser.
Not only do I agree with Keith...is it possible to configure this list to both reject file attachments and to restrict postings over a certain size? I thought Larry had done that at one point...if so, maybe the limit needs to be set lower. I'd suggest the upper limit be somewhere under 200K.
