I might add that those who are subscribed to this list in digest format
(like me) just get the whole thing through as a loooong piece of base64
encoded text... Something that is even less ideal than having it
discarded ;)

*Please* think twice before sending attachments, and at least don't
resend them...

And the same goes for html mail (which in case you don't know contains
two copies of the message, one in plain text and one in a fancy,
colorful version that to me looks just a messy bunch of tags and encoded
characters). But I know I can't fight against this new "standard"...

Oh, well, enough grumbling :)

Best wishes

Andrea
