I echo Judith’s point about this,
although as list moderator I’d prefer people did not send attachments at
all rather than expect me to vet them.
Attachments are potentially harmful, and
are an appalling waste of bandwidth. If you have pictures to send, flyers
to post please link to a site for download rather than send attachments to the
list.
Cheers
David

Dear colleagues,
I've
just received 4 MB's worth of attachments from Lis-profession, which is playing
havoc with my e-mail quota. Doesn't this list have a system similar to that
employed by lis-pub-libs, whereby attachments are sent to the list moderator,
who puts them in a dedicated webspace and provides a link which can be e-mailed
out? If no such system exists on this list, could you/ we/ someonethink about it, perhaps?
Thanks,
Judith
