I never open an attaahment unless I know the sender. I do _not_ like
attachments!!!! When I delete a message that has one it takes two
separate actions for me to delete both. My own mail list is setup to
exclude them. We had a subscriber to my mail list try to send 4 1/2 megs
to the list -- it crashed the software I was using then -- thankfully!!!
Attachments/enclosures are a nuisance!!!
