Alan,
It's not the size of 'postings' that concerns
us.....it is the size of 'attachments'
We don't have a problem with the length of postings.
We just want to get rid of *all* attachments.
Which is why I'd like to know if a listowner can
use list software to
*refuse* to accept *any* message which *has* an attachment
Do you know if this is possible?
