Hi folks,

   Yes, Mark , thanks for the prod as I would like to comment.
The Netiquette guidelines as stated on the home page under Help!, Frequently 
Asked Questions states :
Q: Can I send attachments to the list directly?

A: Yes, but please limit this to small or zipped files. For attachments that 
are larger than 1 MB, send them directly to Kevork kevork at edulists.com.au in 
order to post on the web site supporting the list .

   I realise that not everyone has a fast internet link and even when we 
teach IPM we are advised to taylor our solutions to meet the lowest common 
denominator and not the best equipment or system people may have access to. 
In fact all mail servers worth their salt have an upper limit on email sizes 
both outbound and inbound as well as mailbox size limits, otherwise you 
could crash mail servers rather easily.

  Therefore, if there was a choice between :

 A. Pleasing everybody by having larger attachments accessible through the 
web site supporting the list and no subscriber being troubled by huge 
attachments  OR

  B. Pleasing most or a proportion of the total membership by allowing large 
attachments to come through unhindered and upsetting the balance of the 
membership

  I would choose option A,  for the obvious reason that everybody can be 
pleased and the attachments will still be accessible within a short period 
of time if sent to me for posting on the web site eg. 
http://www.edulists.com.au/yr12ipm . Thereafter, an email can go out stating 
the resource on offer and a link to it.
Also, and of equal importance, is the fact the resource is archived for 
access at any other time in the future, rather than sending the attachments 
again and again and again each time someone needs a copy.

Therefore, please restrict attachments to under 1 MB and send them to me for 
posting so that no members are inconvenienced.


Best wishes to all of you
