<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Folks,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> There is an automatic cut-off at 1 MB when
it comes to the total size of any email ( with or without attachments ) . Any
size under that amount is acceptable as far as we have been operating in 2006.
If this size is too large we need to revisit it. But then again, where is the
limit ? 500KB ? ( Diane's file landed at 481KB ) , 250 KB ? or 100 KB ?
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> We did have a bit of a barney about this
issue some time back, and we agreed to cater for the majority hence the 1MB
limit enfroced through the lists. Anything larger does not get through and is
returned to the sender with a message asking to trim the size and send
again.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Unless there is a big outcry, we are working on the
1MB limit for all attachments.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best Wishes</FONT></DIV>

sidelight, it is interesting to note just how much the email encoding
increases the size. In the above example the email came in at 668K but the
attachment itself was only 493K. I have read somewhere - source lost in the
mists of time - that MIME encoding can increase the size by up to 50%.
Tried it out for myself by composing two emails with attachments. Three
.jpg files total size 1,740K created an email of size 2,386K while one .bmp
file of 9,259K created an email of size 12,671K</SPAN></FONT><FONT
