I see lots of files being sent internally and externally via email. Another trick I see around here is to use email to transfer a file from one machine to another. They email it to themselves, and then log in on the other computer and download it. We have limits set that over 5MB gets dropped to low priority. At that state, internal mail will still be routed, but external mail waits until after 5PM. Over 10 MB is blocked. Tough luck. We tell users to use FTP and our helpdesk has directions on assisting users to do it. _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
