It would be helpful to remember that this is an email list and not a usenet
group. This means:
a) Attached files are duplicated and sent to each subscriber individually,
so that file is now occupying >1 gigabytes, spread out on servers all over
the world. Well, by now less than that, but you get the point.
b) The subscriber cannot chose to receive some messages and not others.
c) Some of those subscribers are connecting to their mail servers at slow
speeds, 9600 or 14,400 baud.
