Those are two very good and constructive ideas Dave. Do you mind if I 
forward them to DJ? I do sense a robo presence in the response to my post. 
"Bat Out of Heck" Really! That's Robo logic for you.

Hmm. Given that the list is at least robo-moderated, I wonder if DJ
couldn't set it up to strip all attachments before sending them out.
I've seen this done on other lists. Then you'd have been saved the
embarassment.

A bonus feature would be to set aside, say, 10 MB of space on his
web server to use as a sort of cache for such attachments, then
tack a URL that points to the attachment to the end of the message
for those people who *would* like to see/hear the attachment anyway.

This would solve Pat's HTML problem as well.
