Hi Joe,

I have no idea. If I attach a zip file it barfs. If I rename it to a somename.zippy, it barfs. But I haven't tried anything else. The zip file in question is about 12 kb. The returned message is always about the mail being spam. I've tried a number of SMTP servers, and mailing return addresses. The same message without attachment is just fine.

In addition, at least one other user has noticed the same or very similar problem.

I don't think there is a virus in my zip, as my system is scanned twice a week, with full protection running all the time. It's very unusual that Norton AntiVirus, etc. finds anything, and I avoid the Microsoft virus vectors like the plague.

Currently the users mailing list won't permit attachments greater than about
5k.  This is quite small, and discourages the exchange of files. Can we make it
somewhat larger, say 25-50k?

% cat msgsize
1000000:2

So the size seems to be capped at 1M, not 5K.  Are you sure it's size
that's the critical factor, and not mime-type?
