Dear all,
I have to say, I have no recollection of ever
having an 8MB attachment, or for that matter any
attachment with an e-mail from LUG. All of the
e-mails come with the text in the body of the
e-mail and not as a separate file attached. I
certainly can't even remember having an e-mail
from LUG that is as big as 8MB at all.
Perhaps I am missing something here?
Best wishes to everybody,

David,
As a fellow Ntlworld user, but who uses Eudora as
his email client, I can assure you that I
received an attachment of size 6.19 megabytes, a
zipped file of a backed up Leggitt Legacy database.
I get Eudora to download it into a subordinate
folder "attach" and because of being on broad
band, it is downloaded silently in the background.
Look for a file called Leggitt.zip,dated
03/12/2006, in the folder, attachments to emails addressed to you are stored!
You may get a surprise.
This could not have happened with a well-organised Rootsweb List! <grin>
It is a pity that the LUG allows attachments of
this size to be sent out on its List.
I feel especially sorry for those LUG members on
dial-up - 6.2 megs is a lot of dial-up time at 65K or lower baud rates!
Just my 2ps worth (Good old British money - none of your Euro stuff!)
