WHOA!!  I don't know what the bikies admin thinks about this, but
it was COMPLETELY uncool to send a 2.3MB attachment to every recipient on
a large email list.  Many lists disable attachment capability to
avoid this kind of abuse, not sure why that kind of proection is not
(yet?) enabled on bikies.

IMHO, the more appropriate
method would have been to post the documents on a website such as
dropbox-type or a photo-sharing site and provide interested subscribers
with a URL to be able to view and/or download the items.

I'm
not in any way suggesting bad intentions on the part of the sender or
disputing the value and appropriateness of the content, only the
unacceptable imposition on user mailboxes of such a large attachment (or,
indeed, of ANY kind of attachment to a mass mailing list, because of
the potential security concerns, such as unsuspecting transmission of
malicious files.)

Friends don't let friends practise unsafe
computing :-)
