Dear members of the sundial mailing list!

As I'm seeing more often that e-mails to the sundial mailing list 
are being blocked because of the size of the attachments I would 
like to remind you that there is a limitation of the accepted size 
of messages to the list, which is 290 kB. We agreed on this size 
several years ago, because bandwidth for many of us was low. 
Nowadays this might not be the case anymore for most of us. Attached 
images to an e-mail might be very helpful and informative. However, 
resizing down the images is sometimes difficult with the mentioned limitation.


Please let me know your thoughts about this, whether we shall 
increase the limit now to e.g. 1 MB.


Thank you all for your valuable contributions to this list, which I 
founded back in 1996!


Best regards

Dear Daniel,

Thank you for your message and thank you for continuing to provide such an
excellent service.  You are an unseen hero of the sundialling community!

I have no strong views on whether 290kB is the 'right' limit and I shall
read what others have to say.  BUT...

Please could you update the advice given in:

https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial

Here it still says that the limit is 50kB and that is definitely too small!

Very best wishes
Frank
