OMG - I need typing lessons...that should have read:
One additional note regarding images served by mail servers as opposed to web servers
- web servers send images in raw format
(8-bit)
so a 30k image will be delivered in 30k bytes. A mail server sends mail in 7 bit
format so the image needs to be MIME-encoded in
the email. MIME encoding typically adds 50-100% to the size of the image so you would
be delivering 45-60k of data for the 30k
image.
Sorry,
Howie
