I don't particularly like Opera nor people attaching anything at all to messages that go mailing lists, but in all fairness, his message was hardly 2.3MB in size ! The JPG pic is, but he compressed it in a ZIP file which weighted a mere 88KB. Sure enough, even 88KB is unacceptable when on dial-up, but it doesn't deserve death ! 2.3MB sure would, though ;-)

Definitely ! All ISP's (at least in my part of the world ??) always give you quite a few mega bytes of space on their server.... so let's make use of it ! :-)
