Nancy, I don't govern the list, nor moderate it, Bill advised me when I
took it over not to try, just to let the group self moderate. Makes
less work for me and it's worked so far.
Most people are on broadband these days and its easy to forget when
sending attachments that some recepients may not have the bandwidth
available to receive attachments.
I wish that it was as simple as me changing a setting to prevent you
from getting further attachments, but it is not. The only thing that I
can suggest to prevent any further problems is to read the list mail
from a web client, I'd highly suggest google's mail, gmail.com, its user
friendly, free and works very well. I use it for a backup to my
personal email.
Thanks
Charles

No, this is something left over from the old software that Bill used
when he maintained the list. I sent him an email asking him to look
into it and turn off that old notification email reminder. You can
safely delete it.
Did you have a question or something I could help you with? Since you
noticed that the emails in the original were not routing, you tried to
send me something?
Thanks
Charles
yes, the following is the message I tried to send . . . .
/I was talking with mark minton about the attachments issue and he
said that the new mexico list addresses it by simply filtering any
and all attachments out. so if a message says see attached document
it simply isnt there./
/
I truely cannot remember what the current status of attachments is -
allowed? not allowed? as someone who can only get modem dialup it is
an ongoing source of irritation esp as the attachments get huger and
huger - and I often have to call my server and have them do the
deleting as it freezes the connection completely./

/I have learned not to mention it to the group at large. several
people were considerate enough to flood me with random attachments
for several days. a punishment I suppose for bringing the issue up./

could you let me know what the actual policy is? thanks, and for all
you do,/
/Nancy/
