FW: [ODE] mail delivery

[Jaroslav Sinecky]

:))) Sorry, I have to laugh...
You noticed the attachment that your mail received when resent through the
list? This is exactly the problem I was refering to. Now try to look for
your mail in the archives (in a month or so), it will not be there! This
makes the archieves just half as usefull as there are important parts of
threads missing.



Now, if this is just some kind of my mail client problem, please tell me, so
I don't play ridiculus here. But I don't think so, because I tried to search
some old random mails that I received with this kind of attachments and
didn't find them in the archieves. (And I noticed already a time ago, that
some parts of archieves seem to be missing)

  I think that we should not send attachment. I generally don't open any
attachments from mailling-list. If you'd like to show some code or demos,
just upload it somewhere and send a notify about the link.

  My 2 cents

    well, no. the ode list gets many spam/virus emails each day, so
    various steps have been taken to prevent the list from being a conduit
    for such things. this includes rejecting messages with attachments
    that are too large.
