Re: Attachments -- ATTN: ListMom Was "FLASH: Larry's site"

[Sam Michel]

Hello Frederico,


I haven't set the list server to strip off attachments in the past, purely

due to the volume of email this would involve filtering through. However,

it does seem to be getting a bigger problem and with the number of people

on the list now, anything that conserves bandwidth is a good thing. I don't

think it will affect the list adversely.


I'll let everyone know when I've had a chance to sort this out. In the

meantime, I hope you'll bear with me.
