I think protection from big mail size (if your images are big in size).

Use imagebin.org to upload images and provide link here to it.

Best regards,

This is a feature, you don't want to send several 100k to *all* list  
members. (assume 10k users - 100k * 10k = 1GB of data worst case)

IIRC the limit is 50k, but better use an imagebin as paul suggested



I fully understand. Just frustrating to not be informed your mail is  
somewhere in the deep space or an unknown /dev/warp :)


And you are right, it is a bad use to directly send files as  
attachments.

That was I thought. But in fact no. For example the last one was :
http://ftn.shikami.org/misc/Lazarus/Snapshot%202007-11-30%2000-04-27.jpg
40Ko :)


40KB gets mime encoded to roughly 1.5x so that would be 60KB  (iirc the 
limit is 50k)

But sending zip archive works.

I fully agree with you and also complained about this before.  I'm not
sure if there is a option in the mailing list server to notify a
sender if the message was rejected. It would be damn nice though.



Yes but not necessary :) If you have a server with huge load and/or  
restricted bandwidth all those notifications  may finish it  :)



What I do now is user really small images, but if they are borderline
size, I double check on GMANE to see if my message appeared.  If it's
not in GMANE, the message never went through.
