Allowing them will run all attachments through Yahoo servers rather than individual computers, reducing download times and increasing security, since Yahoo likely has more up to date anti-virus software than most individuals. It will also put the attachments in an album folder similar to "Photos" and will link the attachment to it's message swo you can find either one from the other. When the list first started, attachments were a problem for many with dial-up connections, but Yahoo addressed those issues years ago. C'mon Bill, make the switch...
