Just to inform some of you about computer viruses, If you click on the attachment and look at what the extension of the file name is you will see if it could be a virus or not. Graphics files will usually have extensions such as *.gif - *.jpg - *.bmp viruses will have extensions like *.bat or *.exe if you receive an attachment with the latter extensions after the file name don't be worried just delete it and no harm will come to you. The only way you could get your computer infected is to click on the programs attachment and have it saved or installed on your hard drive. Viruses on the net are blown way out of proportion. I do think however that for some people the file size of attachments can take a painfully long time to download from your server. And when you get your mail you do not have the option of picking which messages you download so I really think the attachments should be kept below 30k files I have seen files attached on here which are over 500k which is almost like a mail bomb to some people :) You can decrease the size of your pictures by saving them with lower resolutions or lower colour values such as 256k colours or less instead of 16bit or 24bit colours. And if you can save the picture without the colour pallet this will decrease the size of the file by a great deal. Troy http://www.odyssey.on.ca/~troy.nayler/ Home of World Wide Pumpkins home page.
