A large number of messages to lis-link recently have contained attachments. In these circumstances I would have expected the lis-link listowner to send out a reminder and have attempted to contact him/her without success. Therefore, I would like to remind lis-link members of the guidance on sending attachments, quoted from the JISCMAIL website: [quote] Can I send attachments to JISCmail lists? Please do not. If you use attachments, a lot of people won't be able read your file, either because their email program uses a different method of decoding files, or because they don't have the right word processing software. Also, some people have a limited amount of storage space for email, and if this is filled up by messages with attached files then all other messages are rejected [end quote] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Wintrip, Faculty Librarian (Applied Sciences) Bolland Library, University of the West of England, Coldharbour Lane, Bristol, BS16 1QY, United Kingdom. e-mail: [log in to unmask] Tel: 0117 3442495 Fax: 0117 3442407
