Charles,
Your attachment didn't take as much time to load as others have but still,
I receive lots of email and I pay a measured rate phone bill so when I'm
online I'm paying for every minute. If most people like receiving
attachments for group lists I'll have to put up with it. I'm just telling
how it is for me.

>> The main problem is that people send pictures that are too

It seems that there's some controversy over the attachment issue and I
agree with Tom and Barry:
