If the list permitted attachments, I would probably unsubscrive.
This is a discussion list. Attachments are not discussion.
I often download mail on the move -- attachments cost real money over
GPRS when roaming at £10 per mB!!
Attachments are often viruses/trojan from list members with infected
machines. I saw one such (not on this list) less than an hour ago.
Don't change it.
