Well, thanks for the explanation. I will bear this in mind when I send
email with attachment to ntg-context next time. btw, maybe we should
consider setting up a website like http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/ (maybe
paste.contextgarden.net) so that all the files won't be lost? It is
very useful to browse mailing list of previous years, but most of the
links in the mail archives became broken links now.

[NTG-context] Attachment sizes

2008-12-15 Thread Taco Hoekwater

Hi all,

A quick note from your mailing list moderator.

The maximum message size for this list is 64KB. Because
pdf documents tend to be base64 encoded during email
transport, this means that you cannot attach PDFs
larger than approximately 40KB in file size.

Please, will you keep that in mind while sending mails
to ntg-context? Having to go through the moderation list
and manually forwarding messages people is tedious and
error prone.

We will not change the size limit because there are quite
a few people here on slow links. Besides, it will never
be large enough anyway.

When you do have a large file, please email it directly
to the target persion (offlist), or, if it is meant for
everybody, put it on a web or ftp site (if you have one)
or upload it to the wiki:

  http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Special:Upload


Thanks in advance,

Taco

I apologize for this. Being on a fast university T1 (or what ever it may be
classified as) connection I forget what other people have to work with.
Future examples will go to my home page.

Please excuse me for the big attachment. I will not repeat this in future.

[NTG-context] Attachment sizes

2006-04-08 Thread Taco Hoekwater

Hi all,

I have just approved two files with rather large attachments by
mistake. My apologies to everyone who is on a slow link.

To the original posters: in the future, please make large
examples available on the internet somewhere. Some of the people
on this list are on rather slow connections.

Cheers,
Taco
