Like I said, I'm not sure it was this list (I belong to several), but I'll tell you what I remember. It had to do with: 1) Length: People didn't like to receive large messages that didn't interest then. Long downloads, space, etc .... 2) Mail reader/browser: Some people can only handle text, attachments came through as a very large garbage list, you know like &R&HFR{Uf &&%REf ((F&Nr8JJ 3) Potential virus: Some thought that opening an attachment from someone unknown was dangerous. As far as rules, we only have "guidelines" which you receive monthly. >was trying to send an HTML document wih gif diagrams. Surely I can only >send the gif's as attachments???
