4. When we moved the list from Topica last summer, I enabled the ability
to have html and file attachments as an experiment. It seems to be OK, and
some of you like it so I probably will not change back. But please only
include file attachments if you think a lot of Wrenches will appreciate
the file being handed to them. If you think only a few might like the
file, it is better to give list members a choice by putting the file
somewhere on the internet and merely sending the URL and description to
the list. Yes, even in this day and age of high bandwidth, we actually
have some members that are still on painfully slow dialup and semi-slow
satellite.
Yes, with a download speed of around 2kB large attachments are a real issue.
No, it is not that I am too stingy to get broadband, the service just does
not make it to my place, even the sattelite! Even my phone line is
multiplexed.
