Hi Karl!
Thanks for answering. I've now CCed the GNU sysadmin guys... > I've recently sent a large mail (about 400kByte) to [the > freetype-devel mailing list] > > The FSF sysadmins have the MTA impose a rather low limit on all > mail, that I believe your 400k msg has run afoul of.

I very much dislike this new behaviour. FreeType is a graphical application, and sometimes it is unavoidable to send larger images to the list $(Q#|(B a link to an image can quickly become stale, then the information is lost more or less. What does the FSF suggest to solve such problems? However, the most important action IMHO is to tell the user the reason for rejecting a mail! I ask the FSF sysadmins to adjust the mailing program accordingly. Werner
