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!!!
