Well we post more :) We're just a more get along group of wisp's :) We like sharing hehe but yes I agree but I will once again conclude a forum would be better than mailing my exchange has over 4000 mails saved from SB alone.

I think most of you are missing the reason the mailboxes are over-flowing and
this message confirms it. Limit messages to 1MB? 512KB? If everyone would
just post a link to their files/images, the message size could be capped at
20K. I don't know how many times I've cleaned out my message box only to have
20 messages come in with 200-300K attachments
Also, having the tag line at the bottom repeated more than once seems to use a
lot of space. If all replies were not tagged that way, it would drastically
reduce message sizes.
I also subscribe to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Of 60 messages I got this week, only 4 are over 10K
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 5 of 161
This list = 50 of 189
