What a total waste of bandwidth.
On a mailing list that I run, this little stunt would result in an immediate
unsubscription.
By the way, on my mailing list, both attachments and HTML formatted mail
also result in immediate unsubscription. And I've got my list set at a 4K
message size limit. It keeps the responses to the point, and blocks people
from forwarding the full digest back to the list :)
Can we be a bit more curteous, please? No Internet 101 tests, no html mail
(as it destroys the digest), etc?
Thanks a bunch. My poor little overworked cable modem appreciates it! And
I'll bet those that pay by the byte appreciate it even more.
Lee
