David, If it was using Pactor 2 would Winlink accept the message/attachments? or is the 50K limit applicable here also?

Pactor I cannot handle the B2F Compression used within the WinLink 2000 system with Airmail as the host, except for small text-only messaging. Pactor III and ARQ would take a large capability for processing and a CPU that was capable of true multiprocessing using a compliant operating system to decode, as proven back in 2005 when this argument originally surfaced. It should be in Snopes by now.
