you seem to be the only one that has permanent problems with a) and b)
I do not use a broken MUA. I use an MUA that helps me construct a more
personal e-mail by adding backgrounds and other multimedia elements. If
you want to check that out, there is a link to it's site on the bottom of
my e-mail. Noone I have sent a customised e-mail have ever complained,
except (understandably) people on this list, and only because it was sent
in error. I think, that in the future of e-mail is to become more
customisable through html presentation, thus bigger size. CNET counts
122000 downloads of this MUA and it's growing by thousands a day, and it's
website is in the top 5000 rated by ALEXA and i think that with time I
will not be the only one posting to this list using this MUA. Please don't
think I am trying to advertize it to you, I am just presenting the
situation as I see it. About my ability to configure it correctly, I am
able to do so, but it's human nature to sometimes make mistakes, this
is why I proposed to help correct these mistakes before they multiply by
1500 times (I think that the number of subscribers on this list)
Thank you for you time, and accept my deepest apologies. I will
personally setup a filter on my mail server (since I rewrote
qmail-scanner to do just this kind of things with smtp-incoming
e-mail, like I posted before) to limit the size of outgoing messages to
the list if the list desides that it's not appropriate to limit the size
of the messages.
