My point of course was that people simply should not attach big files like
this - as it happens I am now on a fast connection, but I haven't
forgotten how annoying this kind of thing used to be on my previous
dial-up.

Sure, it may be possible to configure so that these mega-files don't
download, but people should not have to do so.
