I second that. This is especially annoying when the subject and email
message give *no* indication of what the attachment is about. We are all
busy people, and do not have time to read download every attachment,
especially if there is a good chance it will be irrelevant. Second, why
can't things that are said in these attachments, simply be said in a
regular old email?
