It's 164 KB... not "large". Plus if you are on a metered service, why
would you download the attachment at all?
Most of the email clients allow you to not download "large" messages.

It wouldn't make a difference to put it in a different site, as you
*still* wouldn't be able to look at it if you are afraid of the data
consumption.
So the end effect is the same

Just my 2c

Pay no attention, Patrick keeps sending these kind of letters everybody
who uses "Add Attachment" button. Very few can understand logic behind
it )))


To be fair I was a bit surprised but I was interested and it is a media list so I forgave him. Some, particularly Linux lists can be a bit like the Mormons and will tear your head off for mailing attachments, apart from sigs. There is so much stuff flying about the internet these days I'm surprised anything works at all.
