;-) Clearing the snow from my glasses, I saw Allison J Parent typed: Another thing about attachments you need to keep in mind, sir Riccardo, is that on the internet 7-bit info is the norm... 8-bit info (like pictures, wave files, etc) need to be UUEncoded to be sent over the Internet, and that will increase the size of the file as well. This is a quote from my Eudora Pro software, which I have set to ignore anything over 30K bytes: "WARNING: The remainder of this message has not been transferred. The estimated size of this message is 111930 bytes." You're 77k attachment grew a bit! ;-) Here in the boonies, a lot of folks still have 14.4 or slower modems (4 or 5 people I know do e-mail at 2400 baud here!) and personally, I would say that anything 35K or larger *after encoding* would be too large for this list. If you have the technology to send something that big, you should have the technology to put it on your web page, and just list the URL to it. That's a very acceptable way to share pictures here, then folks who want to see can spark up their Nutscrape or whatever bowzer they prefer. And even if the mailer did, some folks don't know that the option is available!
