I still use dial-up internet because I can't afford broadband at the present
time.
And yes.....emails with big photo attachmants (thankfully, most people have
more sense than to use bitmaps) DO take a long time to download.

A few years ago, some of our subscribers compained about others posting to
the list with large files attached (i.e., more than 500 KiB to 1 MiB), because
these files could not be downloaded in a reasonable time with a dial-up
connection. A question for all subscribers: do you still use a dial-up
connection to access the Internet? If yes, please say so.
Thanks,
Paul
